Are there any trends you are tired of seeing?

Since you asked, I'll repeat the housing trends that I have already mentioned countless times.

I dislike all white and gray interiors. To me, they just are way too reminiscent of either an office cubicle, or, if entirely white, then an operating room. If it was just the walls, you could easily repaint, but it's often the flooring, and all cabinets and countertops as well.

I also dislike when people take an old house and rip out a whole bunch of walls either to make a new floor plan or to create an open floorplan. I get it--some people cannot afford a newer house, and so they buy what they can and change it.

But when people take down walls in old houses they also take down any features they held--like built-ins, original doors, original trim, etc. And every time that happens we further shrink the pool of old homes that still have those original features. And that makes me sad. There are plenty of 60s forward ranch and split level homes that are nothing more than a basic rectangle with no other distinguishing features whatsoever that went up all over the country in droves. I wish people could get their hands on those and change them instead.

Or if they are changing the layout in an old house, then they likely (in my area, anyway) are taking down lath & plaster & replacing it with dry wall (and often basic dry wall in terms of the many, many flips happening around here), which is such a poor substitute in terms of fire-resistance, natural insulation, and mold/moisture control.
