If I may take some time from your day, there is a very big problem I would Like to address.
Minimalism and Modernism working in tandem.
Because oH my fucking god it's so fucking bland. It's nice every now and then, but oh my god if I see one more goddamn "home makeover" that turns a beautiful rustic building into a Black White Brushed Steel and Dark Gray hellscape I am going to commit a crime.
WHERES THE PERSONALITY!
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THERE"S CLUTTER? THE KNICK KNACKS?
If you say you are gonna stick them anywhere than the fuckoing shelves/bedside tables or dressers or wardrobes Im kicking your ass.
What about the fucking novelty magnets you get on trips at gas stations and landmarks? Cause I know you aren't gonna ruin the "colors palette" of your kitchen - which by the way will look 1000% worse the second dust settles - by sticking them on your Fridge!
My Dad has a beautiful, powerful, large set of speakers, each one weighs about 200 pounds and are a pain in the ass to move, but they really are beautiful, Clear varnish, dark, wood grain bodies, and they sound incredible.
When (hopefully a long time from now) My dad passes, if whoever gets those speakers decides to sell them for something new I'm, kicking their ass.
My dresser is one I've had since I was literally a couple years old, and it has some stickers on it. Old coffee shop stickers, some stickers from City festivals and the like, and someone suggested I get a new one. I asked them why and they said it was old and kind of cluttered, so obviously i responded with "Well it still works, and I don't mind it" But RIGHT NOW i'm like "Actually it looks great. I like the stickers. Infdact I like the stickers so much I 'm gonna plaster Everything IN stickers! TOO MANY STICKERS IM GONNA MAKE COMBUSTIBLE STICKERS AND BURN YOUR GODDAMN HOUSE DOWN"
FUCK MINIMALISM. REJECT MODERNITY.
I STAND WITH THE GAUCHE AND THE GAUDY. I STAND WITH THE RUSTIC AND OLD FASHIONED.
GIVE LAMPS WITH ETCHING AND WEIRD RIMS ON THE GLASS.
GIVE ME YOUR BRUSHED NICKEL AND THE ANTIQUE BRASS. I'LL TAKE THAT PEPPER MILL WITHTHE BENT HANDLE, IT STILL FUCKING WORKS!
IF THERE ARE A MILLION PEOPLE AGAINST MINIMALISM i AMWITH THEM.
IF THERE ARE A HUNDRED PEOPLE AGAINST MINIMALISM I STAND WITH THEM
IF THERE IS ONE MINIMALISM HATER I AM AGAINST THE WORLD.
IF THERE ARE NO MINIMALISM HATERS LEFT IAM FUCKING DEAD.
I. CANNOT. STAND. THE DIRECTION FUCKING 'INTERIOR DESIGN' IS GOOING.
YEAH, like i'm gonna fucking kill anything that makes my house appealing to look like every other schmuck on the block. how about you find something you enjoy other than conformity or i'm gonna fill your house with salt from my little pinch bowl i got from a friend's mom that was gonna throw it away, because I plan on driving the fucking demons of blandness from your home.
If you present your house like it's a clean dish to serve food you bet your fucking ass i'm gonna salt and season it.
PLease. Just throw some color and personality in some way other than false flowers or fake fruit.
A purple blanket. Photos in a portrait you picked up at a garage sale.
please.
make your house a home by making a mess in it.
but make it your mess. make it your home.
