What decor style do you absolutely HATE?!

Anonymous
Gray floors. So cheesy

Jewel hued furniture. It’s passé. Hate stairs that meet you when you step in to the house.

Generally hate frou frou, French, Tuscan - all the stuff with too much crap.

I like Mcm (live in an original house so the style fits well), modern, and industrial.

But to be honest I can appreciate anything that speaks to the owners tastes and efforts, if we’ll done.

What I hate most of all is people with money who go to a furniture store and clearly just spent $15k per room in one fell swoop with the heavy involvement of a salesperson, so the house just looks like a weird showroom floor without personality.

Agree. That living room looks like a hospital operating room. No thanks.

Personally I will always prefer my own version of cottage decor.


I feel the same way. While I would not choose mid-century modern for my house house, I have two friends who have done it really well, and I love the look in their spaces. Similarly, I could never live with full on modern, but really appreciate visiting spaces that have that design.

I suppose if I had to hate on something it would be a cluttered, Americana, kitsch look in a 70s style house, but a tactful nod to that in the right house could even work. I also don't prefer family homes that feel like hotels. I do want to see some personality and feel welcomed in.

The stairs aren't decor. That architecture comes with the house.

Animal prints. Mixing of animal prints.

Grey wood floors with grey cabinets with dark marble countertops in the kitchen. It looks so prison-esque to me.

80s furniture. All of it except for Laura Ashley linens - I loved getting my high school room all decked out a fluffy comforter with every coordinating bed accessory.

Also includes Kountry Kitsch like geese and precious tiny print patterns. Cafe curtains! Teddy Bears! Dried flowers!

Flat bottom bathroom sinks. Why is this a thing. They look disgusting after one use.

Griege walls. Life is just not that grim. Find joy.


Such a bizarre take lol

I don't mind the look of mid-century modern but find it very uncomfortable.

Not a fan of modern as it just looks cold to me. Its fine in an office or a hotel but not in a home.

I don't really like farmhouse either. I feel like it's a quick fad.

MCM furniture is usually uncomfortable. The hard surfaces, sharp edges, and straight lines are visually stressful; they don’t feel organic, and people are unconsciously tense in those environments. The style isn’t designed for warmth or a sense of caring.

To complain.

To pick apart other people over nothing of consequence.
