When your house is just too too tasteful

[Ginmonkeyagain]

What the hell is going on here? This is an absolute horror show of beige and bland tastefulness.

It has a French interior look I think. I like it, but it’s definitely been over blown.

I'll say the same thing as I said when this popped up on Reddit yesterday - it's a bit much in every room, but I don't mind it.

Personally I wouldn't have it in my home.

It’s nice op @Ginmonkeyagain

im not sure how you think a house should be decorated especially one about to be rented out

It’s rented - tenant could inject a bit of colour with cushions, bedding, lamps etc.

I like the kitchen and bathroom. Needs a tad be more colour to make it fun

wouldn't necessarily do up my house like that but it is beautiful

The decor is not to my taste - I prefer colour - but all it needs is a lot of emulsion and gloss, and it would be a lovely house - it has good bones.

It’s beautiful but the absolute opposite of my house. Would be a great holiday house, you’d go there, feel all Insta and restful then come back to the crap in your own house. I like colour too much for it to be mine, and you’d need to be obsessed to follow the aesthetic (and not have kids, or dogs, or anything apart from natural fibres).

Fair play to someone who can live the life, certainly isn’t me.

The inside definitely doesn't match the outside, and the walls are not good. It's better than the grey interiors that look like black-and-white photos but definitely some colour and liveliness needed.

@LuckySantangelo35 If I was renting somewhere out furnished I would do it in decent hard wearing neutral colours, solid well built furniture and then let the tenants themselves have a conversation with me about their preferences for things like curtains and blinds.

I certainly wouldn't bother with an elaborate curated aesthetic.

But I am not, so it is irrelevent.

It IS very beige, isn't it? - I wonder if This One and This One's Wife would fancy it as a UK pied a terre ?

Edited as part of my ongoing hostilities with autocarrot

It's nearly nice but it somehow just misses the mark. Often happens when someone copies their taste wholesale from references rather than really knowing themselves and letting their own style develop. It's an odd mix of Ibiza chic and earthy English bohemian à la Toast and a lot of it is quite tacky.

The only thing not to like is the earwig, spider, mouse, woodlouse hotel they have built under the stairs. I would have to be armed with a can of raid every time I went through that hallway.

The unmade bed reminded me of the Death of Chatterton painting, but I went and looked at it again and he was wearing purple trousers, so I don’t think he’d have been let upstairs.

I think it's shitty when people inflict their sad beige aesthetic onto their kids. Let the kids have some gaudily coloured toys, you drab meanies.

As others have said, it's staged. The people that live there don't live in sepia toned clothes...duh!

But it’s IS for rent! Furnished!

Whoever said it has the instagrammer homesteader vibe - yes absolutely. Quite impractical - all that wood under the stairs, think of the wood lice crawling out from that. A utility sink without a drainer- madness- and the candles hanging over it, and the green tap. There is a crinkly undyed linen vibe I dont really like.

It’s a bit too “ Try hard” rather than evolving naturally.

Those walls look filthy!

I think it's the decor and style of photos however.

Looks like AI 🤔

The decor and overall aesthetic of the interior is completely at adds with the exterior.

Reminds me of this place. Perhaps the owners also went there and got inspired!

The Amish?

Not allowed telephones, even if they are beige!

@Shortpoet , yes those trousers are a bit bright, and I can spot something red velvet to the right. So a bit too cheerful, but definitely the same vibe.
