It's so true! Just ask any trendy person whose high school yearbook picture is at least 20 years old. The trendy kids always look the most "dated" when you see the photos years later because they tried too hard to keep up with temporary fads. Personally, I don't think that should matter if it's a look that you particularly like and makes you happy or brings back happy memories when you see it. The irony of it, though, is that the kind of people who try to hard to be trendy are often the ones who are most embarrassed at their old photos looking "dated" because the look and attitude of their pictures was too tied to that one, specific, brief period of time and not enough to a personality with different sides that exist outside of the current moment.

Glass blocks are awesome! They provide so much light without the cost of windows (+ added privacy). We used them when we renovated & covered our outside staircase. Insta soft diffuse light even on bad weather days. So now we have this cozy day room at the top of the stairs with 2 smallish windows for ventilation & a lot of glass blocks for the rest. We don't need lights until the evening. So if you already have blocks in a place, paint the walls around with a trendy color (but still classic so it lasts), modernize around it to showcase the glass!

It provides the insulation of a double pane thermal window, so it's a great solution to provide light in colder places like where my family home is. We even used some inside the house to allow some light to go "through a wall" & into the darkest part of the ground floor hallway, without enlarging doors & loosing heat. People just have to rethink things. What I would love to do one day is to recolor some to create a stained glass effect.

Yes to all this. I had a 1950’s house once with real sweet gum wood paneling in the den and one wall of the living room. It was stunning, I thought. It made me want to cry when my neighbor, who had the same wood paneling, painted over it. As for curtains - we moved into the house we built a couple of weeks ago and decided to wait before putting in curtains to see how it would feel without them. We are in the middle of the woods with our property going up in steep ridges on three sides, so no possibility of being seen by neighbors. I’m pretty sure we won’t be covering the big windows with curtains.

We also built a house, it was minimal and modern with glass walls, we didn't have any curtains in the downstairs. Upstairs bedrooms had curtains but that is it. We loved it, we moved continents and sold that house. But our current apartment has built in blinds in the windows so if we want privacy or to control light we just use those. Still no curtains for us.

Cabbage rose never goes out of fashion, that pattern is timeless! Popcorn ceilings should be illegal as they’re everything the aesthetic movement warned about. Ugly things really do lower your quality of life. I will say with the light fixtures as long as they aren’t really cheap try to keep them as over time they may develop character and become a quirky element in the space. I have a 1920s painted aluminum chandelier and I love it. When I move into a house I can hang it it will go in my study. An old light fixture is great because if it’s old enough you’re the only person with it in your area and that can make your space stand out. :)

The sheer one you overlap can have all sorts of visual interests be it collor or pattern or anything.

I suggest you don't use pre-pasted paper over the liner. I've done this before and you would never know there was paneling underneath.

As usual, you've made a very helpful, well presented video like you always do. Now, to the critique / disagreeing! :D 1) *Glass Blocks:* Personally, I love (most) glass block applications. I'm definitely of the _"they're timeless"_ school of thought. But I have to give you, your suggestion of making their _"...surroundings look bright and fresh..."_ is really smart! If the surroundings are up to date, the glass blocks' timelessness is underscored. 2) *Large Mirrors:* While big expanses of mirrors _can_ look dated, to me, if they were installed in appropriate places originally (i.e. following good design principles) they're still good. Your idea of adding style-appropriate strips, however, is *gold.* That looks *so* nice! I _do_ like mirrored closet doors too, for the usual practical reasons, but also because I think they look nicer than 'plain' doors. (If you have some kind of fancy, atypical sliding doors however, I bet those look great.) 3) *Vertical Blinds:* Yup, the second picture shows an especially dated, tired vertical blind look. And the original plastic versions barely looked 'good' when they first came out. *BUT* [

They replaced the original sconces with dangly glass chandelier ones cut right into the mirror and put a big matching ceiling chandelier in the adjoining formal dining room. 😢 At least the mirror is one piece and not mirrored tiles like one usually sees. I’m hoping to one day replace the fireplace and, if the City allows, make it wood burning. The chimney is still attached on the outside.

OMG I hate hate hate vertical blinds. Landlords in my country love putting them up in rental properties which makes no sense. They’re ugly, flimsy and rentals have high tenant turnover which means they ALWAYS break. I’ve been in my rental for 10 years now which is an unheard of long amount of time in the rental world and when I moved in the verticals we’re damaged in all rooms. The landlord didn’t fix or replace them and over time high storm winds and just general degradation pretty much wiped all of them out. And she still hasn’t replaced them. Vertical blinds must be destroyed IMMEDIATELY off the face of the earth. Even better - make hanging vertical blinds in rentals illegal. That will fix the problem

Interior design is not about trends. Its about creating an interior environnement that suits your personality. The rest is irrelevant or personal opinions only.

I am stuck with popcorn walls in my rented apartment 😭😭😭 and don’t know what to do 🥲

@hokeypokeypots Жыл бұрын

I bought a huge, 5 bedroom modern house with popcorn ceilings in every room. The house has very high, soaring ceilings in most of the rooms and those popcorn ceilings keep the rooms quiet. I also like the look. Wouldn't ever think of removing them!

I don't understand the hate-on for the textured ceilings. They do provide a needed sound absorption if you have an upstairs. I live in a condo and there is someone above me. I kept the textured ceiling and I'm fine with it. Other owners spent a fortune hiring people to either re-drywall the ceilings, or scrape and paint. The finished effect is that they are living in the inside of a box. Interior decorators say "You need TEXTURE!" so they go out and buy a shaggy rug or chenille chair. People are so stupid.....

Seriously, this. Most people want hard floors, you need some texture:)

Add: chalkboard painted walls, oak cabinets, plastic mini blinds, sponge painted walls, horrible fake plants and flowers, matchy matchy furniture sets, and all those terrible signs featured in many houses. You hit my most disliked: glass block, wallpaper border, vertical blinds and filthy dropped ceiling tiles. Thanks-- agreed and enjoyed your ideas!!

I disagree with a few of your dislikes and agree with you on others :D But I'd like to highlight one--- *chalkboard painted walls.* Always messy looking, dusty and dirty in appearance, chalkboard walls were a bad idea looking for gullible victims. A true 'janitor's basement closet' idea that, somehow, took off with some homeowners. (I'd give that in children's bedrooms only, they could be a good idea.) To me, this is an example of some things that were *"bad design"* from the get go, that is, they were an inferior idea since their inception, that somehow gained limited acceptance.

Love gorgeous oak cabinets. Real wood, finely worked and cared for, is ALWAYS high end, timeless.

Is there any chance popcorn ceilings will come back? I have a house FULL of them. It would be wildly expensive to get them all removed but also to add wooden planks. I feel like they may come back, oe at least be less hated bc they add texture to a space. Is this just wishful thinking?

@katszulga1888 2 жыл бұрын

If you like the texture they add to your space then they are good for you. Replacing them with what is modern will only make them dated in a few more years. Also, if they contain asbestos (and most do) then removing them can be a dangerous job while leaving them adds a little fire protection to your ceilings (asbestos is non-flammable).

@@katszulga1888 I never even thought of the fire retardant benefit of popcorn ceilings. Thank you! In a couple rooms. The popcorn is crumbing so I need to get it tested for asbestos. It’s a bit pricey in Canada unlike the US.

I really doubt popcorn ceilings will ever come back into fashion tbh but like the other poster said: if you like it, who cares what the trend is? And again, removing it is a wildly expensive and potentially dangerous project.

Yes, real wood planks are expensive. The big box hardware stores have thinner panels of plywood, hardboard, beadboard and similar materials. Some you can paint, others look good as they are. Those are going to come out much cheaper per square foot than solid wood. Just make sure you attach them in lots of places, so they don't sag. Fill in the nail holes so they don't become eyesores.

Here's a thought...decorate and style your house the way YOU Like it! Anyone who follows "trends" needs LOTS of money so you can follow the so-called trends from year to year.
