A PROPERTY expert has revealed a popular interior design trend that makes her feel sick.
Renee shared her opinion via a video posted to the TikTok channel for her property business, which she often uses to share interior design tips and tricks.
The property expert revealed that she often still sees this trend, despite it not having been in fashion for years.
She said that when she walks into many people’s houses, they often have grey carpets, grey floors and grey walls.
“Ew”, she said.
Renee described this trend as a “design fail” and said it looks “dated” in 2024.
She said: “I can’t believe how many newly renovated houses and new builds we see with dated and tired grey floors walls and carpet.”
Renee said that she thinks grey is the “gloomiest colour” and added that she is not sure that the once popular trend will come back in fashion.
The property expert suggested using a cream colour for the walls instead, which she said will help you to sell your home if you are putting it on the market in 2024.
In an another video, Renee revealed one thing that you should never “cheap out” on when it comes to interior design.
She said: “You should never cheap out of the kitchen hardware.
“Getting cheap or generic pulls and knobs can really cheapen the look of your kitchen.
“Good quality and unique hardware is so important.”
Renee’s video, which was posted under the username @arhous.niagara, has likely struck a chord with many people, as it has racked up over 900, 000 views on the video sharing platform.
TikTok users raced to the video’s comments section to share their thoughts, and opinions were divided.
