Got it. I have basically stopped watching the property shows. The popular "color" for the past few years is GRAY!
I get neutral, I do not get gray. It is depressing! All the walls, gray, the cabinets and counters, gray. SHEESH!
They also take out all the walls for an "open concept" such there is no coziness in any room, just one giant "space". Noise reverberates in open space. No cozy dining room with dim lighting, to dine; instead a giant island in the kitchen space area. No cozy parlor or living room or library for quiet conversation, a fire in the fireplace, or reading.
Spaces of not an intimate, human scale, along with dead colors . . .
Gray is also a depressing color mentally
That is for sure, so why is it now the color of these times to be put into people's houses?
Counting Crows due Adam sings in 'Mr Jones' that "gray is my favorite color..."
He's not depressed... right? Nope, not "round here" (love that song when feeling 'blue' kek)
I painted my office a gray colour, it works well with amber lighting and reduces eye strain from reflections.
Doesn't mean I would have it in the house though.
I get what you are saying but it is in a group of colors that is psychologically depressing. It can really effect people's moods They claim it is a bad color choice for a work environment
Agree! I hate the open concept living. My kitchen is my sanctuary, cooking is therapeutic. While I don't mind company in the kitchen I don't want my kitchen in the middle of the living room. All the cooking mess and smells intermingled in living space? Nope.
I see the single downvoter, is quite busy.
Gray must be their favorite color.
Yup. Every open concept remodel I've visited has a messy, dirty, smelly kitchen. No thanks.
I love my separate kitchen space. Which I do keep clean because I'm old school and dislike cooking or eating in a dirty environment.
Quite right! A helper or two in the kitchen, maybe. To me though, the dining room is the sanctuary, AFTER the kitchen! Low lighting, cozy seating, candles, wine, good food, good company! The dish washer quiet, very quiet, not intruding.
Yes!!
how hard it that? ; )
Open plan houses get cluttered very easily I have found, never again.
I like grey, and blacks really, but I also like bright and deep wood.
I also prefer open floor plans, because I end up feeling quite claustrophobic in smaller kitchens. I also can do a lot more in terms of decor in a large room.
Extra bonus for a large and open floor plan is that I can add a secret room, and THAT'S my idea of a sanctuary.
Open floor plan is a failure and lets be honest was invented to make smaller houses seem bigger than they are...a house with a defined kitchen space whose noise doesnt interfere with peoples activities in the living room or dining room is where its at.
And it succeeds at that, offering more room for those who either can't afford a larger house or who can't get land in an area close enough for commute.
Open floor plans also simplify central air conditioning, requiring fewer ventilation ducts on the main floor.
Acting as if anyone is wrong for their preferences while asserting your own is weird.
If you want a house without an open floor plan, great! But some of us like an open main floor.
Bro were talking floor plans and youre taking things way too serious lol
The open floor concept was pushed by HGTV because they figured they could get more male viewers if they featured segments where they take a sledgehammer to the walls.
Oh I hated those demo days!
Very ‘1984’ color scheme.
