Wanted a white kitchen for 30 years. Lived with blue green kitchen cupboards for years…was soooo tired of it. Finally got my white kitchen and it is great, love it…never giving it up! Can accent with color with the seasons…love it, love it, love it!! Don’t care what the trend is.

I have always liked a White kitchen, I have colour on my floor and backsplash. That is enough. I don’t care what the trend is either. Plus, I have better things to spend my $ on then updating my kitchen every few years…

[@JodieDansereauArt]

I LOVE my new all white kitchen. I have marble grey subway tile, granite black counter tops and black accent pulls, and absolutely love how it looks. I can accent/dress it up for the holidays as white goes with anything. So, ya, do what you love.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

That is awesome!

[@annemurphy9339]

All white kitchens are classic and people will always choose them.

[@badfrog]

Exactly. Let’s see how well that olive green kitchen ages. We all remember how that went the last time it came around.

[@WallsRepublic-US]

Well, yes. White kitchens are somethings people always love to choose.

[@user-es9mb8wi3m]

Classic, traditional, quality. Forget trends. Live with what you love.

[@chelsicarter4091]

Absolutely agree, & in Australia, Byron Bay would not be the same without white.

[@annmcevoy5686]

Classic designs in clothes and interiors are long lasting. Trends...nah!

[@karenryder6317]

@@annmcevoy5686 Yes, the key to avoid the ever-changing trends is never to go too hard into any extreme. Mid-range is always classic. If you strive for the goldilocks effect--white/grey warmed by light wood tones and colorful accessories, spare but not empty spaces--your home will avoid looking dated.

[@superfacch]

I'm moving now and finally getting away from the white kitchen my landlords chose. It is SO HARD TO KEEP CLEAN

[@marie.s9995]

True. Wanted a classic, comforting interior. 😮✌

[@misscheeki72]

In 7 years white kitchens will come back! So I'm keeping mine. I think the blue kitchens you will regret in 7 years. White and natural wood will always be around and be in trend one day again. I will just have to add colour with flowers in vases and home kitchen decor. Did

On a side note remember design is personal so do what makes you happy and not whats trendy unless your home is an investment and you are planning to sell soon

[@florence8195]

Another option instead of barn doors: pocket doors - timeless classic!

[@vjhreeves]

Pocket doors are fantastic. I have many in my house. But unfortunately they can't be easily retrofitted. Sliders are the perfect solution.

[@florence8195]

@@vjhreeves That's quite true!

[@jeanettesorresso5762]

I have pocket doors all over my house and HATE them. The mechanisms keep breaking, can’t shut the doors then. Wish they were just regular doors!

[@vjhreeves]

@@jeanettesorresso5762 wow, yours must be poor quality or poorly installed or something. My pocket doors are all 27 years old and none have ever broken. Plus I'd never want to give up the space they save...in some places in my house it would be pocket door or no door.

[@vegasrenie]

My house is small, and there's no room for "regular" doors or sliders. So pocket doors it is!

[@lucybraun8969]

My kitchen is black, white and wood. I stay away from colors because any color is going to trend out.

[@WallsRepublic-US]

In that case you can try wallpapers or wall murals, they won't let you stay with same decor for a very long time, just change whenever you want or also keep it with durability, if you want to.

[@maxrobertson9008]

I was over the gray walls 15 yrs ago. Always felt they were cold and uninviting.

[@vaderladyl]

Never got into that trend. Gray is not for walls.

[@rebeccacrow9616]

Grey is depressing!!

[@aiyemwezi1724]

I couldn't agree more. It's always the most depressing spaces painted all grey

Totally agree … never was my favorite

[@gabbyg561]

Totally Agree!! I love warm, plants, pillows, cottage, beautiful curtains!.

[@valeriec3484]

I always wanted a white crisp kitchen, and when we built our house, that was a must on my list. Where I live, they are very uncommon, many people still have the dark cabinets. I live in a very dark rainy place and dark colors are so depressing here.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Sounds great!

[@pastda3]

I agree with everything except the white kitchen. I think they are still beautiful. Can always add pops of color.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

I totally agree!

[@NanaBARS]

Exactly

[@gopony6798]

I follow this stuff because it’s fun and entertaining but there are times I fantasize about taking all the people who come up with trends and drop them on an island all by themselves. Give them paint and accessories and let them fight it out. So much waste getting rid of stuff just to buy more but different stuff. My rant for the day

[@kathy3178]

💯 could agree more!

[@mmmichellegirl]

I will be renovating my kitchen within the next year and I'm doing an all-white kitchen. I honestly don't know how you can go wrong with a blank slate that you can jazz up with hardware, accessories, and other less expensive items. After living in a few different houses, I've found that the more neutral and less fussy the foundation is, the easier it is to transition into what might be a more contemporary look. Having said that, I love Lisa & her design advice!

[@dhathaway]

Sounds pretty! One think I've done, if you love all-white kitchens, but also neutrals, is using a neutral color for the island if you have one. Just a soft cream or light greige against the white looks gorgeous.

[@JMaxwell1000]

Beauty is in the eye.....but many of us feel that the all white kitchens are simply COLD! Like being in the Arctic Tundra. I've never been there and have no intention of going. If I wanted to freeze, that would be an option. Give me a beautify French country kitchen with its many pastels any day.

[@moniquethomas2366]

All white kitchens never felt cold to me because I want my kitchen to "feel clean" not only be clean. That brings me comfort. That it feels clean and fresh, like a mint, and that is cool, but not uninviting -- its more like refreshing. Stick with it!

[@tracibloodworth]

I LOVE MY ALL WHITE KITCHEN! It’s a light and airy “blank canvas”. I add my own color with accents.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Great idea!!

[@ramose83]

Love your videos, thank you. But, as to the white kitchen, so this will remain my favourate .. never had a kitchen other than white ....

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Wonderful!

[@georgeszurbach444]

All those trends were awful since the beginning anyway.A room furnished with taste will last for centuries,no need to worry about trends.

[@user-pb3sb3un7n]

I'm glad the grey overkill is slowing down. I feel like our younger generation was very much into this trend, but I feel like they also have suffered a lot more depression than previous generations. Personally, I think the grey environments pulled them down.

[@---wu3qj]

I’m so glad you said that about minimalism ! I have hundreds of gorgeous antique books, and I’m not giving them up for a “ look”. I LIVE here!

[@LisaHoltDesign]

So true!

[@irisscally950]

My walls are agreeable grey. White cabinets with amalfie blue island. Darker wood floors. Looks great.

[@lindamatus4429]

There’s a reason that color has been so huge. Its def more greige. Its light and easy to live with.

[@msurreal_929]

Hallelujah 🙌🏼 no more sterile white, dreary grey, barn doors and fake minimalist 🥳 I love pocket doors, comfy kitchens, mix/match furnishings to complement fixed elements 🥰🤩

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Me too!! And finally, we're not alone!

[@PaulaMion]

That's how I have always lived. I always do glass doors inside the house and even my pocket doors too. I love how it lets the light move through the space.

[@jsimp4050]

In 2020 I went from brown wall paint to GRAY. And yes I think it’s the cool gray. I love it and have a lot of natural wood and blues mixed in. I’m keeping it. It calms me.

[@ahnie771]

I totally disagree. You can never go wrong with white kitchen. You can add any color with white cabinets! My cabinets have been a sail white from Ralph Lauren in all my houses.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Good point!

[@JMaxwell1000]

I for one would NEVER feel comfortable and cozy in an all-white kitchen. They're a bit like airport waiting lounges -- not very inviting at all.

[@Fawn0001]

I have been looking at a lot of new construction and I love the cool grey and white kitchens! One big thing that is going OUT is the microwave oven over the stove. The stoves have a vent over them with the microwave in a drawer or cabinet. Glass showers are OUT because they are a nightmare to clean. Walk in showers are most desirable with no door and tile to the ceiling. No prefab shower enclosures but a ceramic tub with tile to the ceiling. Free standing tubs are OUT. You cant clean behind them and there is no overflow valve. These are the practical, day to day things I notice. I think color and decor is to your own choice.

[@vjhreeves]

A doorless shower is just dumb, sorry. And without a glass enclosure, what are you using?? A curtain? This makes no sense.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

some of those coming part 2!!! Make sure your bell is on!

100% on the hideous barn doors!!! Your beautiful example of the wood paneled door is brilliant. You could do an entire Master Class on what to do with horrible builder closet doors - one of my many problems to solve. There's got to be better solutions than PAX wardrobes.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Great idea!

[@sorbabaric1]

When I was house hunting a couple years ago, the way I was telling quickly online if a home was a recent flip, was the grey interior. Grey walls, grey LVP flooring. Oh, and a grey or all white kitchen. After living in a rental with all white (and cheap flat paint that doesn’t clean easy) walls, I was craving color (what I prefer anyway). I found an older home that doesn’t have an open floor plan - works for me (and has the original wood floors). Do what you love, and what you want, it’s your home after all. Unless like Lisa says, you’re selling soon, and are looking to maximize sellable and profitable.

[@creativelife9871]

Funny, I’m the opposite, my living room is Passive Gray by Sherwin Williams and it lifts my spirit and makes me happy everyday I walk downstairs. It boosts the light factor in the room and just makes me feel great with the room’s overall feel & look. I like Agreeable Gray but would never do a large space as Greiges/Beiges are pretty depressing to me. I also just painted my Kitchen cabinets, white uppers and navy lowers. Brings in the light with the uppers and grounds the space with the lowers in my favorite color. My plan is for it to lean transitional/Industrial. 🤣😂 I love it! So glad I don’t follow trends with my home or my clothes and do what makes my heart happy.

[@sharonmcmillin9978]

I am going to paint my cupboards white and my walls gray. Design is about what you love and not some trend that changes 2 years later.

[@marjoriejudge5348]

glad to see the gray go - not so good if you living in a rainy region of USA - very bleak vibe

[@trueidentitytime2shine862]

I totally respect and get your thoughts on this. I personally love the cool grays, and blues. I'm a winter and just plan on rolling with my favorite colors.

[@jeanvignes]

If you feel any urge to get in on the warmer color bandwagon, yellows and golds contrast perfectly with blues and they add both visual interest and warmth.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Right on!

[@alil7348]

Yay, I think my beige walls are finally coming back in 😂 I had a feeling the grey would be on its way out, so kept the beige for a few years after moving in. Other than adding an accent wall in a couple of rooms.

[@prettyinpink7058]

Same lol

[@jessbarnes8521]

Greige(!) is the new grey. All the starter homes were beige-filled with a feature wall 20 years ago, until everyone got sick of it. Choose what you like and add your personality.

[@user-bro0921]

Nope-I still love grays, love minimalist designs, white kitchens are nice and we should do what ever we want with designs.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

I totally agree!

[@GailCleveland-g2q]

I decorate with the colors and styles I love; warm rich colors emphasizing blues. I’m watching videos like this for ideas, not to follow the trends. Think for yourself people, and surround yourself with decor that brings you joy.

[@paulenedean3774]

Great video Lisa. I have an all white kitchen and love it, but can you do a video on how to warm it up please.🤎

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Yes I can

[@Charitin]

I don't follow trends. I prefer feeling happy with the things that I have that attracts me. Objects and colours that matches my personality. Why should I do things in my house what other people are doing just because it's trending. For me the best interior choice is to be original.

[@marylut6077]

Can we please ditch the giant wood bead strand, wooden knot, Ford coffee table book?

[@patrickmurphy3179]

A coffee table book about Ford automobiles would be ok, right?

[@nightbender9250]

Any time designers and brands try to promote certain colors and shapes I always ignore them because those will always look dated within a year or 2. Anything trendy means it’ll be dated very soon.

[@cejateresa13]

I’m getting white kitchen with a pacific blue island for a costal look.

[@LA70S]

My kitchen has peach and blue walls, woodtone cabinets. No neutrals in my home. Just lots of glorious color! Absolutely no white, grays or blacks.

[@vjhreeves]

I adore color too, and couldn't live without it. But, as an artist, I'd suggest that you rethink banning black. Putting a bit of black somewhere in every room grounds the space. Maybe a lampshade, or an accent pillow, or a picture frame. Doesn't have to be much, but it makes a big difference.

[@jeanvignes]

Thin stripes of black can really enhance a color scheme. Think some photos or art mounted in thin, matte-black, rectangular frames. Or a cranberry and rose striped throw pillow with black velvet piping. It's just enough to make the colors intensify.

[@sorbabaric1]

That sounds lovely.

[@LA70S]

@@vjhreeves Oh, I have a little black here and there in accessories and I did paint built in shelving in our udated office but know one would go away from my home saying it had painted blackn gray or white walls or flooring. For those that l9ve this look, go for it. Our homes ahould be decorated in whatever colors make you feel good. For me, it wore me out early on and I find neutrals rather boring. But again, if neutrals makes a person happy, do it. Home should be our sanctuary. Make it comfortable for you.

[@LA70S]

@@jeanvignes My father-in-law was an artist and we inherited several of his pieces, which we have hanging in our home. When I choose art to hang in our home, color plays an important part in that decision but I have to like what the art piece says. Our home is styled in traditional/transitional decor so modern pieces do not ordinarily work. I have a very special little oil painting of a rural scene with a country lane. When the afternnon sunshine reflects on that lane, the painting comes alive and 'I take a walk down that little road.' That is the type of artwork we hang along with old family photos of people who were so important in our lives but are no longer with us. They have not been forgotten and having their pictures close by gives us tremendous comfort. Every thing in our homes should bring us peace. So, if the black strips bring you peace, harmony and joy, I love that for you. We are all unique and our homes should be unique, also.

[@1911beauty]

Nope, I have a white kitchen. When I upgrade the kitchen it will be a better all white. I love cool gray mixed with warm metallics. People should buy what they love. In five years all the things she recommended will be will be out of style. Designers will go out of business if you stay in love with what you bought. I am in love with the same sofa I was in love with 10 years ago. I love plaid and damask now, and I loved it 25 years ago. Buy what you love

[@bobwalker5694]

Barn doors were meant for barns.....who knew??

[@leeboriack8054]

I’ve see barn doors used inappropriately in many d century modern, Tuscan and French homes. Step up and get a pocket door.

[@patriciaburgess6342]

Don't follow trends. I am creative and used COOL GREY, silver and white with delicately embossed white silver dandilion themed wallpaper with white sheers and - wait for it - grey drapes. Will renovate my kitchen, installing light grey cabinets. The upper ones will have silver metal screen inserts with cobalt blue backsplash. I call it coastal hamptons. I do not care about trends.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Sounds great!

[@1stAmbientGrl]

Unless you are selling your house, create your own style. I don't like trends.

[@deelehey2827]

Grey is timeless and sophisticated. Cream and grey is beautiful. Please stop the farmhouse style. It’s like a beach theme home when you live in the desert.

[@jeanvignes]

So much can be done with accessories and art if you get the base right. I love sea/beach colors (blue-gray, sea-glass, sea-grass, sky, waves, sand, etc.) and I live in a very hot climate where cooler colors are a blessing on a 112-degree heat index day. Whew! But It doesn't have to be floor-to ceiling, 360 degrees of blue-gray. Yikes! Mustard yellow accents add warmth and visual interest to a blue-gray velvet couch. How about alternating matte/satin silk stripes on a throw pillow? Or a deep mustard ceramic vase with blue dried flowers with warm brown stems? How about a warmer beige/sand rug with muted blue and blue-green figures? How about green-leaning sea glass in a woven basket made from toasty sea-grass? How about one coral accent chair? How about natural bamboo roller shades? How about a sepia, antique, family photo montage matted in pale aventurine with pale blonde wood frames, how about a muted turquoise ceramic statuette of Quan Yin rising from the waves? Or a cobalt blue vase sitting in bright sunlight next to a pile of yellow-gold ball-shaped candles?

[@marjoriejudge5348]

Have to say I just saw a white kitchen in a recent remodel w/ brass accents that looks darling in a vintage home for sale listing - but as you say it was a warm white not that blue undertone white....

[@esthernuebel9417]

I do have an all cream-white kitchen (always wanted one). However, I chose my panels with a cream wood like structure to avoid that the kitchen looks cold. Together with copper accents it does not look dated at all. Listening to Lisa’s take on things makes me sometimes feel like a trendsetter…. Hahah … lol! No grey either … 😂

[@JonathonV]

It’s a good thing we love each other, Lisa! 😬 I had a hard time with this video, I’ll be honest. Pure whites, cool greys, and industrial style will always be dear to my heart because they make it possible for me to have bright, beautiful accent colours that warm spaces don’t allow for. I’ve lived with greige walls for the last three years and I loathe them (my landlords won’t let me paint them, but they charge me hundreds of dollars less per month in rent than I’d pay anywhere else in this area so I really don’t want to move). Every time I try to add something new to my space, it doesn’t work because it clashes with the creamy white trim, the gold floors, or the putty-coloured walls. Maybe it feels warm and inviting to most people, but for me, it looks predictable and safe and builder’s-box. It brings me down sometimes, so I have to focus on my décor and pretend it works with the design of my house, even though it really doesn’t. But if I had a cool-coloured industrial loft, I could bring so much joy into the space with colour and visual interest. I could bring in a real statement piece and it would look intentional rather than clashy and ironic. It’s a good thing I don’t subscribe to trends to inform my décor, or I don’t think I’d be very happy. I love getting inspiration from various places, but Pinterest and Instagram are all about the organic modern and the browns and the dusty pinks and I’m sitting here craving the Emerald and the Viva Magenta 😂 (which make warm colours look sickly yellow). Anyway, I appreciate how much support you’ve given to me over the years in my design language and style, even though it’s different from yours. 💚 By the way, happy 2nd birthday to DezignSpace!

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Hey J! Miss you! Yes, this is not for you, you have a love of color that the warmer palette won't be happy with. But Hooray, bc the colors you love are sooooo special, and need expression! xo L

[@youbetcha108]

You could use removable wallpaper to change that color.

[@TiaraHelen]

Fiddle leaf figs. Backwards books. Books as decor trays. Random long branches dangling over vases. Bare light bulbs. Sorry, too soon?

[@JMaxwell1000]

And some of us HATE those "color" schemes in the exact same way we hate sitting in a dentist's waiting room. If you love pure whites and cool greys, move to the north of Sweden where you can have both in nature all year long.

[@JonathonV]

@@JMaxwell1000Oh, absolutely! I’m very aware that my style is not typical and that not everyone will appreciate it. 🙂 It’s good to be aware of trends even when I don’t like them so I can be aware of how to make my space look when I’m moving away.

[@ryansoo4000]

The problem with trends - all trends - is that this month's "WOW" becomes next months crap. And it all costs money. If you want to have fun one afternoon, take all the stuff you bought that you loved for a tiny amount of time and are now looking at and thinking "Why the heck did I buy that?" and add up the amount you paid for it. Then look at the total and think "I either have too much money or really bad taste". The next time you're tempted to buy some awful piece of bric-a-brac that you'll hate in a month, why not donate that money (that you obviously don't need or want) to a charity that feeds hungry school kids or the homeless? Not only will your donation do some good, but you'll also keep another piece of useless crap from ending up in a landfill.

[@GreatScot0425]

One thing to consider is where you live: I live in the northwest, with lots of gray, dark days during the winter. Thus, I have a white kitchen, which lightens/brightens up everything. I can accent with colors. I never get tired of the white.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Great tip!

[@andreaandrea6716]

The problem with trends; THEY GO OUT OF FASHION! "Know Thyself." And KNOW what YOU like!! If you do (interiour-design-wise) what you love, you don't have to change it up every five minutes. I mean, THAT would be exhausting!

[@vegasrenie]

And I don't know about you, but I don't have the budget or the desire to keep up with every "trend." Some of my furniture is many years old, but because I bought classic styles, they don't look dated. I paint my walls the colors that I want and the only trendy stuff that I will do are some of the accessories around the house. Such as lamps, vases, frames, etc. I usually don't like things that are "on trend" because like you, I know that they will be going bye-bye in no time!

[@andreaandrea6716]

@@vegasrenie Exactly! Even if I were filthy rich, I wouldn't care what 'the latest trend' was. Good taste is timeless. It doesn't mean that one stays frozen in time... it is important to move energy (stuff) around or it gets stale... but thinking you have to BUY it, instead of CREATING it, is ... sad!

35 years ago when we built our first house, I used gray. I didn't use a blue gray though because I think it helps promote depression if you are prone to it. I used a gray with a touch of red. It was definitely easy to live with. Also that white house.... I would think all white would stiffel the brain development in children. Plus it looked like a psych ward.

It really only matters if you’re (1) trying to find something to match it a few years down the road (buy now before it disappears) or (2) planning to sell in a few years (in which case it’s still not worth redoing everything, but you will lose a bit of value for being dated).

Just do what you want - if you see what is on the "to do" list here today, you'll see that it's on the "not to do" list here in 12 months, so you can never win - not for long, anyway. Eg. the grey is no longer "in" - but her grey/beige is - but only until she says it's not..... Just do what you like - it's your home - not a magazine shoot.

lol! It seems that my Industrial-Transitional with a glass barn door rental home needs update. But I'm stubborn and I want to achieve the Industrial feel, on a budget, one way or another lol!

[@andreaandrea6716]

I think Minimalism only really works when you have really fantastic Art on the walls (and not the garbage that's made by machine in a factory in China and bought at your local big box store). Any time I've seen an interiour that's minimalistic with bare walls, it simply looks sterile, un-lived-in, as if it's a show-room. Even KimK's house: Bought. Nothing personal. Lacking in character.

please stop with he grey. i cant even find a tan sofa for 10+ years

Yikes, I just painted nearly every room in my new home with Benjamin Moore "Silver Satin" less than a year ago! Tall ceilings too so lots of ladder work for me. I love the color though... as do my artwork and furnishings. I collect abstract art and have to be careful not to have the wall color compete with it. Stark whites and yellow tones are a hard no for me. Decorating is great because of all the complex challenges and decor evolution. Thank you Lisa, you certainly do inspire and keep the process fun!

Honestly, it Sounds great! Thanks so much for supporting the channel!

I am an abstract contemporary artist and I just painted my new studio white. I did a ton of research on white paint first (there are only a million of them lol) and settled on Sherwin Williams Alabaster. My studio walls are full of my very colorful work and it's a perfect backdrop. I suggest checking it out!

[@vegasrenie]

I remember when white used to be, well, white! 😊

[@b.walker5955]

HELP. Years ago, I Faux finished loft walls like a portrait background. 4 different shades of grey. But they are cool! I have color discernment now and the cooler greys are driving me batty. YOU ARE SO RIGHT! OUtta here! But I spent so much time applying the finish. Hopeful to continue to benefit from the work. Have an idea to brush on a warm wash over the finish similar to the method of plastering. Could a sheer wash of warmth mask the cool greys? If so what color? White? Grey? The greige may work. Do I need to get an appointment with Benjamin Moore?🤣

[@reneejunette9952]

I don’t think gray is a color Hate minimalism Barn doors yuck Industrial not for me Hubby hates all white kitchens.

[@lharrill7229]

Surround yourself with what you love. With what makes you feel happy when you see it. Your home is for YOU, not for visitors.

[@jimmcconnell7328]

I agree with you,some of these have to go,like minimalism for sure. Who really lives like that,and why live in a home that looks like no one lives there. Besides it’s boring. Same thing with that farmhouse set up you see so often. Okay if you actually live on a farm but all those little plaques with sayings on them is overdone. We need to see some fresh ideas on KZbin. Thankfully we are now seeing some colour coming back in design ideas for our homes after all that bland grey tone we’ve been seeing for what seems ages.

[@charliebronnenberg4798]

I’m so sick of the K family, can’t they be listed as out date and don’t bring it back, or less is more. I could go on. White kitchen not doing all white but I need my white cabinets never had it. I’ll do color in the island like a gold leaf omgggggg yes that would mama Hugh statement. I better get painting

[@esosajenniferisere6254]

Spot on, on Gregies my living room is Agreeable gray and my rooms are pussy Willow, it is so welcoming, relieving and and inviting and. So calm

[@WallsRepublic-US]

Well all the Home decor trends are off course not timeless. Keep changing them gives you a fresh vibe. Although adding wallpapers in home decor is also the idea to get something new.

If you're like me and love sprucing up your space, check out this video on design trends to ditch. Kudos!

[@karenokeane6461]

Was always baffled why the" "fifty shades of prison gray" was ever a 'trend' in the first place......totally devoid of any warmth whatsoever....unless one is actually seeking a morgue or correctional institution vibe.....LOL

[@LisaHoltDesign]

AMEN!!

[@jacquelineabdo1963]

Great advice, just as my new white kitchen is being installed !!!!

[@LisaHoltDesign]

You can do it!

[@andreaandrea6716]

'Uber Minimalism' (such a funny term!) ... is for monks!

[@lucybraun8969]

Thankfully, I never went full bent on any of these going out trends, and am able to phase out my light greys with greiges.

[@starseed2226]

Everyone is different we all have our own likes, I love all white kitchen 😍 I'd rather be unique then follow someone elses taste.

[@sparklepea]

So excited my house interior is coming into fashion - warm grey baby good to know I’m years ahead of a trend 😂

[@williambender6711]

Pot lights need to go or be redesigned. If you wear glasses for distance, you don't want to wear them 24/7 in your home. Pot lights don't give enough light and one has to wear their glasses. Big fail.

[@whiteserpent6753]

They work best as fill lights, generally, to deal with areas not properly lit by your other lights, or to highlight particular areas. If they’re the only source of light, though, you need to get them to be more focused (30 degree beam or less), small, and put in a lot of them on a dimmer switch. You’ll probably never turn the dimmer above halfway, but putting in lots is the only way to get the light well-distributed if you want to sit and read, do homework, sew- whatever. Otherwise, yeah, you’ll never have enough light. The whole “pools of light look more cozy and inviting” philosophy only works if you don’t want space to be more multifunctional.

[@Jijohann]

Those damn barn doors, I knew they would go out of stlye as quick as they came lol

[@123Rockchild]

Even GREIGE colors are BORING!

[@LisaHoltDesign]

It CAN all be boring...it's how you execute!

[@Anikanoteven]

How do your glasses frames go purple? I love that! Not bye bye to white kitchens. The alternatives you showed are only classic in mid century homes and would look completely out of place in more traditional homes. The warm greys have been a great choice for years, yes cold greys would never be a good choice, but if you want to discuss a current movement it’s back to beiges and very warm whites. These trends videos just continue the American obsession with the latest, the best, keeping up with the Joneses, instead of mindfully thinking of personalized, authentic living spaces.
