Hello everyone,
I have often wondered what typical “building mistakes” from the 2010s and 2020s will be seen as in a few decades. Would you like to speculate together?
I mean, in the 1970s, it was considered stylish and modern to cover bathroom walls with brown tiles all the way to the ceiling and combine them with sunny yellow sanitary ceramics. Back then, no one could have imagined that this would one day be regarded as unattractive.
Will vinyl flooring and laundry connections on the first floor be seen as typical but now outdated features of our time? Floor-to-ceiling windows? “Smokey eyes” (dark window tinting)? Which elements will make the next generation shake their heads and wonder about our questionable taste?

Smart homes with app control that stop working.Especially all that proprietary stuff, which won't have any support in 2 years and no replacements available even on eBay after 5 years. Congratulations on your smart home.I admit, I have sinned... because I chose windows and the front door in anthracite (aluminum cladding) and actually went with tiles in wood look and a wood-concrete look...
In the neighborhood, there is a house that an architect built for himself. It is completely clad in anthracite, has a gable roof—of course also anthracite—and no roof overhang. In my opinion, it is absolutely hideous.
Otherwise, I believe that anything very extravagant (colors, patterns) is most subject to changing trends. Things you quickly grow tired of. The rest is a matter of personal taste—I always cringe at “box architecture” and I am not a fan of the townhouse style...

Fingerprint front doors Why? It’s really convenient, I never want to give it up, and it offers great added value. I think this will become an absolute standard in the future.
