>One house had a living area that was Post-It Note yellow from floor to ceiling, unbroken and undifferentiated. When I looked at houses an alarming number of them (including the one we bought) were painted this way! I cannot imagine the rationale behind that, it looks absolutely awful. Another troubling (to me) trend is cheap looking wall stickers. So yeah, beige must be out now!... That doesn't mean its replaced with better. Bold colors are hard to do right (I am not artsy) so I don't try too hard making things unique. Neutral is fine with me (which includes beige). I also absolutely detest decorations, they are nothing but clutter to me. If it doesn't serve a functional purpose I want it out of my house.
