What's a design hot take you stand by? 🔥
I'll go first: I love open shelving in kitchens. Yes, things get dusty, but I don't mind a little extra cleaning to be able to see what's in the kitchen.
What's your hot take?
P.S. Be nice! We're not yucking anyone's yum :)

Nothing makes me sadder than seeing a cute vintage house with the original features, especially vintage kitchens and bathrooms, ripped out and replaced. If you want a boring white/gray box, please go buy a boring white/gray box and leave the character and charm for those of us who appreciate them.

@losfrangeles have you watched the HGTV show Small Town Potential? They do a great job preserving the charm of some of these old houses around the Hudson Valley. My favorite episode is a Tudor-style home that looks like something out of a storybook — a good balance of making some modern upgrades while still keeping true to the home’s architecture. I do think there’s a nice way to do the all white/neutral look but I hear you on wanting to preserve the charm of original homes!

I stopped watching HGTV when one of their longtime hosts entered into a business arrangement with a dangerous convicted felon (I swear I am not making this up). But I’ll look up that show!

Also check out the show "Restored" on Max. Bret Waterman is AMAZING at modernizing while preserving all the details.

Currently I'm TOTALLY here for color drenching a room! It's such a fun, unique take on painting rooms and to me really gives a WOW factor.

@AdrienneBreaux I'm guilty of trying this in my dining room and it made me feel a bit loopy 😛

I don't care if they're no longer in vogue - I love an accent wall, colourful bathroom fixtures, and swirled plaster ceiling textures.
