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Will vinyl flooring and laundry connections on the first floor be seen as typical but now outdated features of our time?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?

I checked. Yes, the type of heating is listed in the building permit/planning permission application. So it is probably also part of the approval.

These egg-timer shaped lights that illuminate upwards and downwards on the facade or stairway.I don't consider unscrewing a lamp to be a construction flaw.Since anthracite-colored windows are still being installed and are mentioned here repeatedly, a quick question:
Can windows with aluminum cladding (not foil-covered) actually be painted if needed?
Regarding all movable parts, I agree with @desixtor. And when I think about my parents’ house, it was renovated completely after about 20 years. But you have to be able to tolerate the tiles for that long.

Aluminum window sills are a good point.
Before the construction, I said I didn’t want any because you can hear every drop of rain. When choosing the windows, everyone recommended aluminum and said they were quiet because of a great anti-resonance strip underneath. Not true. You get used to it, just like you get used to the weather noise on a skylight. But it’s not the smartest solution; it’s the cheapest.
