Cool question.
I copied a lot, but it’s not meant as criticism of you, it’s just that something always came to mind when reading it.
I mean, in the 70s it was also considered stylish and modern to put brown bathroom tiles up to the ceiling and combine them with sunny yellow sanitary ceramics.
That’s coming back. The brown is already here, gold-colored fittings too, in a few years the blatant combo will be back.
Wood paneling
Back in the 80s it was spruce, today it’s oak, tomorrow it will be oak again. See below.
One of the first pictures in the Google search shows not only the tile color but
Regarding the tiles I would say: it depends on the quality. Some, also in dark brown, are so classy that they are still appreciated today. If you have an eye for it. Those who follow the mainstream more, of course, don’t like them.
Very dark clinker... I think it will be just as much a sin as the horrible yellow or white clinker of earlier years, which nobody would use today (and apparently nobody replaces clinker either)
Yellow is being built again. Also today’s clinker is basically no different from back then (same shape, same tone) at least here with us.
Upper floor with vertical spruce tongue-and-groove boards, that was stylish,
Beech interior doors, I wouldn’t do today either, but many are still doing them – especially in the low-budget general contractor sector
These have been discussed here several times and also posted as pictures.
Country-style kitchen, I wouldn’t do that either, but you can still often buy those...
It somehow never dies out. I find it downright ugly... and it keeps being sold for really expensive money.
Stone front gardens
Yes, I think so too!
Concealed fittings
? They already existed in the 80s. Very modern and still going strong today.
Wire mesh fences and gabions
Yes, gabions. I think so too.
Concrete bricks
They existed before, exist today. I don’t find them even worth mentioning.
I think architectural sins are
- large houses
- grayed plaster facades
- stone deserts and gabions
- glazed colorful roofs
- plastic as roof cladding
- children’s bathrooms (I’ve seen too many old houses with abandoned bathrooms upstairs)
- fireplace
- muntin windows
- outdoor kitchens
- technology and storage room combined (utility room)
- air spaces
- kitchen (people no longer cook at home the way we know it)
Many things are declared architectural sins that will be ecologically frowned upon.
Everything else will have its time again and again.
