s/o the post on McMansion hell.

What popular house trends do you hate and hope will die out soon?

I hate front loading garages with a passion. I would never buy a house with one.

I hate the "modern farmhouse" trend. Classic farmhouses are nice but I'm talking about the McMansions that are built to resemble one but don't quite make it. Hope that trend dies out soon.

For instance I think these are so fugly:





I don't mind white kitchens but I hope the white on white on white trend everywhere else dies out soon.

Farm house
Ugly patterned tile in bathrooms
Black windows
Blonde wood
Two tone kitchen cabinets
Exposed light bulbs
“Wood look” tile
“Brushed nickel”
Words on walls

Gray everywhere/everything and cheesy fake styrofoam crown molding.

Row house flips that feel like bowling alleys.

What's a front loading garage?

Gray or greige paint indoors. So sterile, and very dated already.

Grey grey grey and oil rubbed bronze in kitchens and bathrooms

Houses with blue siding. I just don’t like blue for the outside of a house. Stop it.

I do hate these. Especially round ones. The squared off ones don’t bother me as much.

The ugly garages being front and center. Why why why???? Why make those the absolute focus and center of the house? They are ugly. They should be in the back tucked away.

I also hate faux everything. Vinyl siding meant to look like wood. Fake stones stuck on top of your facade instead of being the actual wall. Fake wood floors. Formica or quartz made to look like other stone... what's wrong with quartz? It's own qualities are quite nice. Stop faking it. Even newer materials have some redeeming qualities and should stop perpetrating a fraud. It looks CHEAP and feels gross.
