In 1990 that was the height of sophistication. Today, Millennial white/gray is the height of sophistication. What can we learn? Trends in home design/decor are bad. Stick to something timeless and you won't think it's outdated every few years.
Millennial grey is outdated. It's all about the 70s revival now baby. You heard it here first.
Mudhuts will always be in. Don't move with the flow, be the rock every drowning man needs.
I’m really sad as a Millennial that this aesthetic has been dubbed “Millennial gray.” I’ve watched some videos on it that make the case that it’s a backlash from the 70s aesthetic we grew up with combined with poor financial prospects in early adulthood, meaning we couldn’t buy a lot of or very nice furniture. Now that I’m firmly middle-aged, I can afford better stuff and my husband and I are slowly turning over crap particle-board furniture for nice solid wood pieces (often secondhand) in the craftsman style.
There was a thread recently where someone called it "Flipper gray", because it's actually being done by boomers trying to flip houses.
Been meaning to get into the Craftsman style, I've had a kind of shaker aesthetic going on with most of my projects.
The 1990 looks like 1890. I'd suggest that makes it the timeless decor.
I prefer rustic cottage theme. I never get tired of it and if someone else thinks it's ugly... Cool, don't live with me then.
Millennial gray is timeless!
You can decorate it with anything because it's so neutral
Only partially joking
Milennial gray works when you buy like a couch or something in grey, and then install colored accents around it. Red curtains with blue table lamps. If you do the entire place in shades of gray you're just...dead.
Yes, I'm a millennial.
I meant more that you can do the walls, ceilings and floors in bland neutral colours and then furniture, curtains, etc, can be changed out as the current popular style or your own taste changes. So you don't have to rip out the floors and repaint the walls to change the color scheme.
Also that it'll be easier for your (grand)kids to sell the place when you're dead because it's easier for the new owner to redecorate around the grey than around what's on the "before" pictures here. I was originally gonna comment that but left it out because the world's morbid enough without my sense of humour.
