The 15 MOST HATED Interior Design Trends in 2024! Avoid These Trends at ALL COSTS!!!!

[@ArmstrongEA]

Carpet in the bathroom is not a trend. It's a mistake. A grave grave error.

[@bluesky7838]

I moved into a rental with a carpeted bathroom. As a single woman, I didn't know the gravity of the error until a man stayed at my house for a couple of weeks. Had to throw away the rug. Oof.

[@katiesoderling3596]

I experienced soooooo many carpeted bathrooms when I lived in England for 6 months. Why? Why?! It was so gross.

That is such an OLD design idea. We did it back in the 70’s! I haven’t seen it lately. It’s so disgusting 😝

*#1 Interior design trend to avoid for all of time...* Decorating TO PLEASE OTHERS and NOT yourself! *STOP trying to PLEASE FACELESS OTHERS in every aspect of your life, people.* Chasing trends is simply a MARKETING ploy to get your money! *STOP IT!*

[@animatedmoi]

Kiva has been serving looks since her surgery. Sis is looking great! 👏🏿

[@lyngideon]

For me, a lot of these trends that are hated, are not hated because they are necessarily bad, but because they are so done to death. It's like I tell my husband about my first college apartment... I had a favorite print framed and hanging over the fireplace... it was Monet's Waterlilies.... need I say more? I saw that EXACT same art in about 90% of girls aparrtments/dorms around campus. Trends can just end up looking like you have no creativity or individuality.

Completely agree on the chopped pillows. I've always thought they look ridiculous. Pillows should look full and fluffy not chopped in half!

[@Kevin15047]

Maybe that's the difference between people who like and dislike open concept. I'm not a "please talk to me while I'm cooking" sort of person. I'm a "don't bother me while I'm cooking" sort of person.

[@maitre32]

I don't want my guests to have to look at my kitchen mess the entire evening. Cook it, close the door and entertain.

[@beautyinthedark7406]

I never looked at it that way because I too hate open layouts. I love that my kitchen is closed off so I can cook and listen to music in peace 😊

[@barbaraeaton9266]

When I was a teenager I had a friend that was with me when I made my first cake. I forgot the baking powder. You know how that turned out 😅

[@barbaraeaton9266]

I like the looks of slat walls. Oh low furniture Is the pits 😂

[@Kevin15047]

@@barbaraeaton9266 Oh I felt that. Once I was making a birthday cake for my dad. And when the layers were about halfway through baking, I noticed the measuring cup of oil sitting on the counter. Oil that was supposed to be in the cake. 😮‍💨 I try to stay one step ahead of my ADHD, so I left myself plenty of time to redo it.

[@rebeccaprewett5014]

Your glasses - absolutely amazing! A wonderful look for you!

[@MsAnneofgreengables]

kiva, you crack me up! the thing about farmhouse (which I don’t have) is that it can absorb a lot of different styles of furniture. for young people just starting out with hand-me-downs or crafted or thrifted items, “farmhouse” can pull a lot of things together into a sort of gentle traditional look - something that feels more intentional. it’s comfortable and flexible. after all this time, some people must love it - somebody’s buying all those “eat” signs and huge spoons!

[@annbrookens945]

You can pull it together without including farm animals, kitschy signs and giant cutlery

[@Lotna]

You can do the same with cottage style, but the effect is much more harmonious and colourful. Even shabby chic looks better than farmhouse with those horrible farm doors.

[@lizhoward9754]

The open concept is the only way to go if you live in a very tiny space like I did for many years. You do not want walls, except for the bathroom and closets, in a Manhattan apartment. However, I think open concept in a big home would look more like a furniture showroom than a home. You don’t want to get too carried away with it in a big home. And I DESPISE low furniture. Not only does it look ridiculous but it is impractical and uncomfortable. I am 67 years old and I want furniture that is tall enough to easily get in and out if. I don’t need low chairs like I am in kindergarten. I am a big girl now

[@mom2artists]

I hate "open concept" in my one-story Florida home. Open concept on the main floor of my two-story colonial with a basement was fine.

[@sharonwilliams5965]

Decorate to make you and your family happy and comfortable. When you list your home to sell, that may be the time to stage it in the current fashion trend. Otherwise, your happiness and mental health and comfort is more important than what your neighbor thinks of your decoration.

[@QT-oc9rn]

As a florist from Germany I've seen real olive twigs with a very white underside, so it's possible that some fake trees mimick that sort :)

[@krisy-in-italy]

This is true. I have an olive tree in my garden and depending on the light and time of year it has a silver hue on the underside.

[@glittermama]

About twenty years ago, I actually stopped on a deserted road to pick pampas grass and brought it home to the country house we used to have. You have to spray it with hair spray so it doesn't shed. Who knew it would be so popular?

[@annbrookens945]

I have done this before, as well!

To Each his own, darlin', I am an Interior Designer, and my kitchen floor is silver, from the 80's, the 1 1/2 sq. tiles in my bathroom, are gray....my interior is surrounded by brick and granite walls, my entry walls are Sherwin-Williams "Grayish" Bathroom is RL "Looking Glass Silver", even the ceiling....bedroom is RL "Kerry Coast Sunrise", North facing.....What you got, honey bunch? ....a clue??

[@rblover2466]

It’s way past time for the grey trend to go. Give me some color!

[@kj7045]

I like the gray walls but I like some color also so I use accents to add color.

[@wkjeom]

Well, I just have to add that low furniture is great for us shorties. I hate it when my feet can't reach the ground. So if you come to my house and you ain't short, you'll just have to bend those knees. LOL!!!😝

[@NeshaJay]

Me rolling my eyes... with my open concept house, my farmhouse kitchen curtains and my laundry room sign... 😂 good thing I threw away my pampas grass and never replaced it!!!

[@IBNTOME2]

After living in our home for 23 years we are finally updating our kitchen next month. The first contractor we had to give us a bid suggested an open concept... I replaced him immediately!!!! No way do I want an open concept kitchen, I cook far too much for all of that. It would irk my nerves if I'm in the kitchen and I can visibly see my husband doing nothing!!... while I'm doing all the work in the kitchen. The fact that I can be in my kitchen and have him in the living room and or family room relaxing and waiting until I serve the food... I love that for me and him!!

The bathroom carpet thing was big in the 70's. You could buy carpet in a bag like 4 x 6 or 5 x 8, it had kind of a rubber back. You could cut it to size and also take it to the laundry to wash it. Oh lol I so remember this, oh oh it came in shag mostly!

[@squoctopus]

Yep, I hate open concept after living in them almost my whole adult life. Because I don't want people in my kitchen while I cook - they distract me and get in the way and I have to entertain them while Im busy. Go out to the living room that I've made so nice for you! I'll be there in a minute! I don't want the dirty dishes visible. AND if I'm working, it's noisy for the person trying to relax 15 feet away.

[@niajeannine]

saaaammme! my kitchen is big enough for ME. its MY kitchen! Im the hostess and all my secrets and lil messes are there. yes you can grab something from the fridge or the pantry when im NOT cooking or preparing... but when i am.. relax and let me take care of you

[@tamiewert808]

I come from a family of gardeners. I did not receive that skill set, so I have fake plants and trees all over the house! There's a difference between low and high end fakes!! I love the rustic vessel pots as well!!

[@Katiedora122]

When I was growing up, the one time my stepdad let us sleep in on a Saturday was because he got up early, picked up some BRIGHT BLUE paint on sale, found a rug, and then redid the bathroom on his own. Like, painted over the PAPERED WALLS and ALL the trim and wainscoting in said bright blue. And then he put down this very thin, waiting room-style rug to "protect" the linoleum floors (going around the toilet, under the clawfoot tub, and into every corner)... We also had a dark red walls in the dining room and an offbrand Tuscan kitchen because it was the early 2000's, and I haven't recovered.

[@TheBklynite278]

[@kathyhoward9182]

Hey Kiva, here’s a fun one for those of us that love open concept. My great grandmother‘s kitchen was actually in a separate building from the rest of the house. From what I can find out, this was done to keep the heat down in the rest of the house, and if there was a fire, they didn’t lose the entire house. Now imagine having to pack the entire meal across the yard to the table! And I don’t even want to think about what kind of planning would have to go into a midnight snack lol Absolutely loved this video! You are a treat so much fun and energy. Hello from KY!

I’m old and pampas grass was IN in the 1970’s. It shed all over and people kept it until it turned gray and had spider webs all over it.

[@Rose-qr4xn]

Low profile furniture. All of my friends are in their 70’s. When we go to people’s homes with couches practically sitting on the floor none us can get up. It’s a conspiracy to keep us all confined to our seats so we don’t wander around and get lost 😵‍💫.

[@sybil3]

I agree about farmhouse-I love it, but I think it needs to fit the house style, too. Modern looks great in a modern house, farm style looks great in an older house!

I was given a cactus plant because I only do outdoor plants. Indoors, plants have no chance with me. I had the cactus for years before it occurred to me to water the poor thing.

Happy Friday, Kiva ! Adore your channel, Hon ! First time comment from me: I don't like to say hate, but my most fervent "Intense Dislike" is for most of the word signs, also tired of "Farmhouse" as it has been presented. I live in the country, there are farms with Actual Cows right near my place & nobody's house looks like the "designer style" farmhouse & barn doors are where they are meant to be: on the barn!

[@kellyjhardesty2987]

Fun video, Kiva! Two thoughts: I first learned the pillow chop from my mother-in-law. This was in 2000. (I know the date for sure because we'd just moved in there.) So my problem is that it was a cute look **25 years ago** and then never seemed to go away. Yeah... a bit dated. About the gray floors: Again, my mother-in-law (can you tell which side of the family fashion & design are coming from?) had a beautiful city apartment done in grays -- with bright color accents, like you suggested! in her case, tiny pops of yellow, bright turquoise, and hot pink -- and recommended gray as a relaxing color to live with. I tried it, but only once, and here's why: Gray doesn't go well with natural wood. And I love wood furniture. So I've gone to warm colors for walls & floors which complement all the natural wood tones. Thanks again for the fun video, Kiva! xox

[@lormor460]

Omgosh, Kiva! Your energy and humor has me just smiling through the whole video! 😂😂 I agree with almost everything you said.

My kitchen is semi-open in which I love. It's not totally cut off but provides just enough privacy from the open space to feel like you can have a private conversation in the kitchen.

[@hollynelson3883]

"Open concept" can make a door-cluttered older home (pre 1950, for instance) suddenly look roomy and bright. Okay, I can embrace that. What worries me is - what’s holding up the house now? I sold my old home, the flipper took it open concept by removing the ground floor central load bearing wall, and when they put it on the market again, I visited. I saw no evidence of new beams or anything. Looked great, if no one had ever taught you about load bearing walls. Scary.

I actually agree with every one of them except the Modern Natural but then I’ve liked Modern/Contemporary design along with natural pieces like wood, high end baskets, large rocks, glass etc, before they were even a thing. I liked that look as a child in the 60’s and it didn’t exist but I loved certain things I came across and my mother would ask me why I’d like such a thing? I was too young to know how to articulate what I liked about it. So all these years later, and now being a widow, I’m finally able to curate my home with Modern Natural things, plus I’m an artist so I can make things.

[@hereforit2347]

Hating any design style in its entirety is crazy. You don’t have to do everything in one style. You don’t have to have ship lap or signs or a clock painted on the wall to embrace farmhouse in some way. I’m eclectic. My style, for the most part is “vintage salon”. But I do embrace certain rustic elements. I especially like to do a vintage, rustic Christmas tree sometimes, with tin, plush, and wooden ornaments. I love plaid ribbons and woodland creatures made of wool, pine cones, and coir. I also like the black floor lamp in your farmhouse example photo @2:41.

I get that open concept is popular. But I cook. A lot, and large quantities. I don’t want my whole place smelling like cooking. I also don’t want everyone seeing the chaos that happens during a marathon cooking session from everywhere in the house. It makes the whole place look messy. I also need to be able to concentrate, so I don’t want to deal with everything going on in a main room. It invites commentary from the peanut gallery. The design also achieves the openness usually by sacrificing kitchen storage, and I’ve got a ton of counter top appliances. They can’t just live on the counter. But because I have to cook in the living room, there’s nowhere to put them. But now everyone can chat at me endlessly and drift and get under my feet! I’m in the middle of the action whether I want to be or not. Clearly an idea dreamt up by an extrovert. I’m still looking for a cool old house with a nice kitchen that isn’t in the living room. Unfortunately they all seem to get bought up and “updated,” (read: ruined) so that’s becoming less and less of an option. My frikkin kingdom for a kitchen with a door, or at the very least a decent amount of storage.

[@TheDriftwoodlover]

A-men sister.

[@lhitch2900]

I was recently looking for a condo to buy in a high rise building in the city and all I could find were open concept lofts and I realized that fewer walls meant fewer electrical outlets…

[@mom2artists]

I don't love to cook, so my preference for not-open concept is not the same as yours. I thought I would love having an open kitchen/great room after a secluded kitchen, but I don't. I think what I'm looking for is what I grew up in which was an eat-in kitchen... which sounds like what you want as well. No one eats in our too-small "Cafe" or at our counter... they're just too small.

[@sassyspoiled]

I do not like open concepts either. They are beautiful but not practical for me. We bought a 1962 closed concept ranch on a basement in 2021 and I love it. I needed to add cabinets, and I would not have been able to do that if the wall was gone. When I cook or clean I like my music and peace. Every now and then my hunny may sit at the island and talk with me.

I have a couple of faux plants, first because I don’t have a green thumb, and secondly, because I have cats. They’d use the pot as a litter box and many plants are toxic. I keep them clean and dust free. Tried not having any faux plants, but my home looked very bare.

I can’t imagine anything other than an open concept home with small kids. I need to be able to keep tabs on them while doing what I need to do

[@carolalvarez3925]

Love these tips. Hope that open concept homes become unpopular. Dont like cooking in the living room.

Okay I will happily hate on everything on this list (especially the bathroom carpets 😷) except I will never hate on the chopped pillows because how else am I going to punch out my frustration while keeping the pillows from looking flat?

[@triceywill3230]

😂😂😂 this is too funny. I agree with some of these, especially the chopped pillows.
