You’ll never catch these features popping up in a home, at least if these designers have a say. In this video, Real Simple asks a group of professional home designers to explain the items, colors, or features that they actively avoid putting into their clientele’s homes. Fans of primary colors, this video is not for you.
Transcript
00:00One thing you would probably never see me put into space, primary colors, I just
00:04think that should stay in a kindergarten classroom. No shade. Ceiling fans. Never
00:08put a ceiling fan. Wall-to-wall carpeting. We have never brought that into a room.
00:13I don't think we ever will, but you never know. Something I never bring into a space
00:18is a feature wall. I very passionately believe that if you are going to use a
00:23color or going to use a pattern or wallpaper, you should do it across all
00:27the walls and the entire room and there's just something a little dated about the
00:31feature wall in my opinion. Don't tell the other designers, but I don't like beige.
00:35I don't add beige. Beige and brown. It works sometimes, but for me, I'm all about the
00:41color. Droidgy Biv all day. I try to shy away from things that feel stuffy or
00:47uninviting. So if you walk into a room and there's a piece that looks like it's like
00:51gonna fall over if you breathe on it, I don't want that in my own house and I
00:55certainly don't want it in my clients' houses.
