Honestly, I find "paint it all beige" era only marginally less incomprehensible than the "wood paneling on everything" fad in the 70s. Just...why?

Collateral Damage posted:Both were still better than the current "paint it all blindingly white" trend. dwr catalogs aside, in actual home listings i see a lot of the gray floor, gray cabinets, gray furniture, gray floor, gray gray gray I would also say that for those catalogs and in stores, part of it is probably to draw all the attention to the items themselves. i know dwr uses a white with a pink undertone that has an LRV around 90 or so. the new trend, which I've heard from several designers is more towards browns Collateral Damage posted:I bet that's a delight to keep free from dust. my neighbor loves to make cocktails, so she displays all her glasses, and I told her to just get something with glass doors so you can see them all but avoid all the dust, and she refuses. "when I need them I just wash the dust off first."

Youth Decay posted:... It's also some good real estate photography. The pic of the kitchen makes it look roomy and clearly shows a reasonable work triangle, and the HDR screws up the color just enough you can't tell whether the wood paneling is the affordable-cheap kind or the lovely-cheap kind. Arsenic Lupin posted:Previous owner of our house painted it all saleable beige, and it's a much yellower beige that I can tolerate. What makes me really sad is a couple of chips in the hasty paint job, revealing that the downstairs bathroom was a nice sea green and the kitchen was a sunny yellow. At one point my parents painted the guest bedroom a sunny yellow. As in being in the room feels like staring at the sun. They eventually repainted it...a nice sea green, iirc.

Oh no doubt there's some photo magic there but it is a 1440sf 2-bed 2-bath, so I would expect a good-sized kitchen. The wood paneling can't be that bad if it's survived this long. Also wood would have been an upgrade over the usual paneled walls (as seen in the bathrooms and laundry room - note the seams behind the wallpaper) of older mobile homes.

Agh, even though these are electric guitars and not acoustics it still make me squirm to see them hanging on the wall above a baseboard heater, especially when the rest of the 1968-construction home does not look like it will do a great job of humidity control.

The Bloop posted:what the poo poo is going on with that island though Looks like the burners are on the raised section and the lower portion is a dining area. Great setup if you are a home chef that likes to entertain. Or want a casual in kitchen dining area. Otherwise it’s wasted space.

The Bloop posted:what the poo poo is going on with that island though  Raised rangetop with 4 side-by-side burners. I think there's a griddle next to the oven. An earlier example from 1957 House Beautiful with an intercom system on the other side of the island, so Mrs. Housewife doesn't ever have to leave the kitchen.

I'm going to be buying some more bookshelves before Summer, and decided to compare Lundia with Ikea Billy. Ikea: ~520€, Lundia: 3500-4000€. I think I'll stick with Billy even though Lundia is obviously superior. (I hadn't even considered Lundia until I saw a picture of Jodorowsky lounging with a cat, with some in the background - it reminded me they exist.)
