I like minimal style and easy maintenance. If I would build house from scratch - would use polished cement walls, modern lights. House should be functional, minimal and easy to maintain - especially for big family. Hype, trends coming and dissapearing.

I like neutral colours, but not in a cold clinical way. I like warm greys, greige, white, cream and taupe mixed with rustic wood, oak, lots of nice soft furnishings like throws and cushions, and interesting ornaments. I love country style kitchens with stone floors, shaker style cupboards and butler sinks. This is not a description of my house sadly, but this is the aesthetic I aim for!
I also prefer doors to open plan!

I agree, @Precipice !

Wood, especially sort of mid-colour (not very pale and not very dark, but a warmish brown). I like a wall covered with shelves and possibly some cabinets (think the old Eastern Block decorating 'furniture-walls', great for saving space). Like some paintings too, so not on all walls, which would feel very crowded.

Like warm colours on walls, largely yellow, sometimes a little more into orange. Brighter for the bathroom, if the bathroom gets decent light, maybe some orange or a bit of red.

Definitely pro-doors! No open plan. Keeps sound down and a sense of privacy and seclusion, which is comforting even if nobody else is actually there.

I like the first "modern" bedroom, the green one is quite nice. They don't exactly look cosy, though.. perhaps just a bit more colour would warm them up.

Im in love with the french-country design style. It's rich, elegant and stylish. Lmao, my house is so far from any of those things!!🤭🤭🤭

I think that looks a bit dull, but taste is very subjective.

Shelves full of books.
Plenty of colour.
No open plan, rooms you can close the door on
