I dislike brown (except for hardwood floors in a light or medium brown, and then I mean wooden furtniture is fine). Brown couches, brown pillows, brown carpeting….. so depressing. I also hate when everything is grey and has no personality. Also hate wooden signs.

Colonial type furniture and fussy drapes

We could be friends lol. I HATE pedestal sinks and stairs right when you first come in.

Yes, this. Especially brown overstuffed reclining furniture.

Mid century modern, farmhouse, and whatever this all beige and straight lines and pampas grass thing is right now (think Target studio McGee). I’m 37 and my peers are elbow deep in it.

On the other hand, I love the classic RH look (their modern stuff is nice but not for me) and have a very soft spot for Tuscan/Mediterranean style homes and fixtures. I wish all the ornate iron would come back into style.

Another vote for the signs with sayings on them, anything "rustic" or Joanna Gaines' farmhouse look.

This isn't a style, but an item - I hate those elevated bowl sinks. Why??

I know this is not a hot take, but style that doesn’t fit the environment. French country fixtures in a Clarendon apartment, exposed brick wall in new construction suburbia, etc.

NP. I don't care for these either but the ones I really hate are the ones where the bowls stick out past the front of the counter, like a big pregnant counter belly.

I don’t like the grey wood unless it is a beach house where aged grey wood looks appropriate. I don’t know why it’s so popular.
But I’m sure lots of people would hate my house. I have antiques and some floral curtains.

Anything other than a clean white kitchen with white cabinets, Dark cabinets are so dated to me.

I love mcm. I am a fan of Frank Lloyd Wright and my interior furnitures are Eames, Knoll and Milo Baughman pieces. I love the clean lines/look. I don’t like huge furnitures.
