A Reddit user asked ‘What is a terrible trend found in new home design?’ and here are 30 of the responses.
Here is more about home design.
1.
Shitty bathtubs. I grew up in a 100 year old house. It had a nice bathtub with a sloping back so you could comfortably lounge in the bath. Modern tubs are pretty nearly straight up on the back so there’s no comfortable way to soak, smoke a joint, and read a book.
2.
Open concept bathrooms.
I don’t need to see you taking a dump from my bed.
3.
Total lack of solar panels/windmills. I think its criminal that new builds don’t have any form of energy generator built in.
4.
Removing stair banisters for a crisp look. Like your drunk friend Brooks is going to fall of the side and die one day. There are building codes for reasons
5.
I don’t know if it’s new new, but it drives me crazy when people replace cabinetry with open shelves.
Don’t people understand dust? Bugs ring a bell? Pet hair? Speaking of pets, how do you keep your cats from messing around with that setup?
6.
Beating minimalism to death with a sledgehammer. Everything being grey/white, even painting over gorgeous natural wood, practically zero color anywhere. Just breaks my heart when they take beautiful vintage homes and renovate them to shit by making everything look so sterile.
7.
might be an unpopular opinion but i don’t need my home to be smart…I just need things to happen when they are supposed to happen and not completely shut off when some douche thought it was a good idea to play who can touch the powerline
8.
Live laugh love.
9.
By-laws against clotheslines. I’m going to pay for electricity/gas when the sun and wind are free? In this day and age, who can be against solar and wind?
10.
I really don’t like the fireplace design where you are intended to put your TV over it. A TV is way too high when over the fireplace.
