Ugh sorry for the triple post!


Sorry hun it's not a trend


I don't mind larger houses if you need them for whatever reason, but I do not like 2-story foyers or 2-story great rooms. It just feels like too much wasted space to me. But I don't think they will go out of style or seem dated since having as grand a foyer or vestibule as possible was an aspiration since early times.


I don't like them either; the foyers, at least, seem to becoming less common.

Totally disagree, it's definitely a 2000's thing, in the nineties, it was cherry cabinets with dark granite. Before that, oak cabinets.


Nope. It's been the most popular color year in and year out. You're right about the cherry with dark granite though. That was totally a fad.


You must have a new white kitchen.

For sure, white kitchens and possibly wood floors in kitchens, two or three pendant lights over an island.

gray paint- it's everywhere... I like it, but it will obviously go out quickly because it's getting over saturated.
