more dumb barn doors



barn doors are for wealthy white people wanting to live the "fantasy" of living on a farmhouse, wiping the sweat off their brow while laboring over their apron sink, or using a washboard to clean clothes by hand. the house appears to be old and weathered, thanks to the last pieces from target magnolia

in addition to aspiring to look like a barndominium (don’t google this if you don’t know what it is) I think it’s also an urban industrial loft thing. I’ve rented places in the city that had the original top hung sliding fire doors because they didn’t want to drag them out of the building. installing new ones from overstock is always a dumb look though.

Barn doors are a favorite of flippers/rehabbers because they’re inexpensive/easy to install, make a big visual impact, allow you to enclose openings that were otherwise large for a door, and were (until recently) uncommon.

Now they’re cliche :sad:

you can always spot a flip in my area because

1. barn doors
2. everything is gray or white, to the point that I've thought some real estate images were in black and white

in more relevant news I spent 12 hours in the car with my moms boomer friend while riding to visit family. I got to hear about how she really “pulled out all the stops” to sue a developer and derail their plans for a new housing development in their neighborhood. by the way her and her husband work in production at a factory and she bought her house for 200k in 1999 and now it’s worth 600k.

I have laminate flooring but it looks like wooden planks (can't do hardwood due to concrete subfloor). Everyone thinks it's hardwood. I think there's some confusion because everyone talks about laminate like it's a material, when it's a process.

My house has barn door flooring. We took some antique barn doors and converted them into a more rustic/natural looking hardwood floor. It sucks when you stub your toe on a hinge but it looks great.
