Home Décor or Disaster? The Hilarious Chronicles of Weird Interior Design Trends Unearthed in Inspections

The Wild World of Home Décor

Interior design trends come and go. Some trends leave us speechless. Home inspections often reveal the funniest and strangest décor choices. Let’s dive into these hilarious discoveries.

**Shag Carpet Madness**

Remember shag carpets? Some homeowners still love them. We’ve found entire rooms covered in shag carpet, even bathrooms! Imagine stepping out of the shower onto a fluffy, damp carpet. Not practical, but definitely memorable.

**Mirror, Mirror Everywhere**

Mirrored walls were once a big hit. Today, they seem over the top. We’ve seen homes with mirrors on every surface. Ceilings, closets, even entire rooms covered in mirrors. It’s like walking into a funhouse.

**Avocado Green and Harvest Gold**

These colors ruled the ’70s. Kitchens and bathrooms in avocado green and harvest gold still pop up. These retro hues make for a colorful, though somewhat dated, surprise during inspections.

**Sunken Living Rooms**

Sunken living rooms aimed to create a cozy space. But they can be a tripping hazard. We’ve stumbled upon many of these in older homes. They’re quirky but not always practical.

**Carpeted Bathrooms**

Carpeting a bathroom seemed like a good idea once. It’s not. Moisture and carpet don’t mix well. We often find moldy, damp carpet that needs immediate replacement.

**Over-the-Top Themes**

Themed rooms can be fun. But sometimes they go too far. We’ve seen jungle rooms with fake plants and animal prints everywhere. Pirate-themed bathrooms with treasure chests for storage. It’s a creative but overwhelming experience.

**Popcorn Ceilings**

Popcorn ceilings were popular for a while. They hide imperfections but collect dust and cobwebs. During inspections, we often find them outdated and in need of removal.

**DIY Disasters**

Homeowners love DIY projects. Not all turn out well. We’ve seen uneven tile jobs, poorly installed cabinets, and funky paint choices. These DIY attempts add character, but also extra work for new owners.

Home inspections uncover the good, the bad, and the hilarious. Weird interior design trends add a layer of fun to our job. Whether it’s shag carpet or a pirate bathroom, these quirky choices make each home unique.
