2.Open-Concept Floor Plans

“What is with the hate of open concept?

It provides much better heat distribution, too.

And there are less walls to paint!

Open plans also allow for communicating with guests while you’re whipping things up in the kitchen.”

Screw whats trendy when its something that is undeniably practical!

Its classic like brick houses and wood floors.”

5.Minimalism

“Minimalism isnt boring or even a ‘trend’ really.

“Minimalism is more of a lifestyle than a trend.

It can also be done with rich colors not everything has to be white.

Its too much clutter which gets overwhelming for my anxiety and ADHD.”

7.Laminate Floors

“Sorry, but sometimes laminateisthe better choice depending on your lifestyle.

Our house has hardwood floors and our dog and vacuum both scratch the hell out of it.

We literally dont know what to do right now because vacuuming is scratching it every time.

“My friends have real wood floors.

I have laminate in my flat and it’s so much easier to maintain and clean.

It’s also warmer and softer underfoot if you are someone who likes to walk around barefoot.”

It’s neither a trend nor aging poorly it’s a timeless way to upgrade an old home.

9.Wall-To-Wall Carpeting

“I actually like carpet.

Not in every room, but atleastin bedrooms and on the stairs.

My upstairs neighbors walk around their room above my bedroom all hours of the night.

I can hear them with shoes on or off.

They also love dragging furniture around after midnight for some reason.

It’s like they never sleep.

If they had carpet, it would absorb so much of that noise!

Not every house has beautiful hardwood floors, either.

10.Gallery Walls

They’re durable, timeless, and they never look dirty, either.

Also at least they’re not laminate.”

12.Linoleum

“Hot take: Linoleum is actually fantastic.

It’s bio-based, and it comes in lots of different (and aesthetically appealing) designs.

Sure, some of it can definitely be ugly, especially the older stuff.

But I’d gladly put some of the better looking stuff in my own home!”

Give me all the cabinets I can get.

I don’t like the ‘orange’ look that normal wood-toned colors or beige walls give.

I mean, no disrespect to anyone that does.”

Wood walls can be absolutely amazing!

16.Color-Coded Bookshelves

“I still don’t understand the massive hatred for color-coded bookcases.

kitchen cabinets

Am I unable to simultaneously enjoy how my books look on the shelfandread them?!

Well, sorry for liking both rainbows and the written word.”

In my opinion, handheld showerheads are always the way to go.

Certain things will always be neutral classics for a reason.

I can redecorate or upgrade elements of my kitchen without having to do a full renovation.

Neutral bases let me change my style again and again without blowing the bank.
