Hello,

It would be really great if everyone here could just post one or a few pictures showing the current state of their house.

I'll start right away.

For renovations, it’s best to provide a comparison of before and after the remodeling.

Before March 2014:



After May 2015:

These are the kinds of things, such as dark oak doors, that people usually remove and renovate again within 15 years at the latest.

I don’t think so. I consider it more timeless than, for example, some gray tiles in 60cm x 60cm (24 inches x 24 inches). But everyone has their own taste. You always have to see the entire interior to judge whether it fits well and is coherent.

By the way, there will be hexagon tiles in the bathroom... But back to the main topic of the thread, we can continue discussing tiles in the tile thread if needed.

Who exactly is "you"? People who base their taste on current trends? Then I agree with you.
People who are confident in their own taste and style tend to choose independently of fashions. It is very rare for them to make choices so off the mark that they need to remove floors, doors, or anything else prematurely.

Sitting right in front of the stove, enjoying the cozy warmth and flickering flames with a nice cocktail (-: I wouldn’t want to give up this stove for any amount of money. When you often hear "no stove in new builds," I can only encourage everyone facing this decision to "Do it!!!" We currently use it almost every day, and 25°C (77°F) in the dining room is just perfect.

Treat yourself... how can anyone be against a fireplace?! What’s better than a fire?

Here, too, tastes vary. In our old apartment, we had a nearly 100-year-old terrazzo floor. We find our current floor just as beautiful, so it will probably stay for a longer time, similar to the solid wood floorboards in the rest of the house.
