Aubergine... the perfect color for a kitchen. Who doesn't like eggplants?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yo dawg, I heard you like eggplants...

I love purple or other weird colors/ features in houses. It means I can get the property with less competition as most buyers are afraid of basic renovations.

My house had shitty purple walls and weird space age looking chrome light fixtures everywhere. Took me a while two days after closing to paint and replace it all. I was the only person who had put an offer in.

I initially saw this post while wearing blue blocking glasses and it looked completely normal

As a survival strategy I therefore propose

I love purple but I would hate this kitchen.

My living room walls are purple but less intense than this and offset with blues and off-white. You have to be careful with purple. It gets overwhelming quick.

lol what a waste of money.

Like it's kid's bubblegum grapetastic flavor purple. It's "look what it's done to the camera's white balance" purple.

There's no such thing as bad or good taste, when it's limited to one's choices.

When you are calling your own taste good, or some other person's taste good just because, and make it something social - that'll always be bad taste.

Yeah, and market doesn't have anything to do with taste.

About the photo - if not for that horrible floor, I'd like it. Should have made it solid dark gray.

EDIT: LOL, I see a few people strongly disagree with the fact that it's really bad taste to pretend that taste is not subjective.

That's actually the only thing determining "bad" and "good" taste - when the thing's appearance clearly shows that the author thought their taste is "good" by association alone, like Disney Star Wars or maybe by imitating a style which is "good".

There are, of course, things like laws of composition and colors chosen etc, but these are still not objective and differ for various kinds of art.

Not sure about others but I like this color scheme

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I kind of like it but I get exhausted looking at it for more than 5 minutes

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I could... survive this layout.

But when selling a house, you want to appeal to as many as possible. And this kitchen does not have wide appeal.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And that need for wide appeal makes every house boring.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I would argue that there is many ways to preserve wider appeal w.o. it having to be boring.

Heck even in this kitchen if all that was wrong was the paint job, you can fix that in a weekend.

But it is the floor and working top, the shape of the cabinets, the poor tiling and walls, the mismatch of the cabinets and stove, the lack of appliance space, the lack of windows...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You can, but it requires more skill and more effort.

Skill and effort are often in high demand and low supply.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

It's a definite no from me. The color scheme and that floor, just no. The stove sticking out, also a definite no.

All the cupboards also seem abnormally shallow to me, as if large plates would not be able to fit in the hanging cupboards. But maybe my perspective is confused because of a larger stove than I'm used to.

For me, that entire kitchen would have to be replaced after buying. We don't know what corners this house flipper cut though, I would not trust this place to be done well.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I love it... unfortunately I can't buy a house.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

I'm always curious whether or not these posts are true and it looks like the purple kitchen is real, but the content of the text is not.
