Mmm, old cigarettes and dust

[–] db2@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

And whiskey.

Everyone always says they hate these 70s designs, but I frankly love them. They're warm and earthy, they just feel comforting to me. Maybe it's because the rural area I grew up in had tons of houses and places built like this.

[–] affenlehrer@feddit.org 9 points 3 days ago

It's a mixed feeling for me. Definitely warm and comfy but also difficult to keep clean. I mean my grandparents somehow kept their home reasonably clean but on the other hand these brownish tones did a good job hiding the nicotine stains and the fabric everywhere could hide a lot of debris and dust.

If they still sold refrigerators in harvest gold, my wife would be working overtime on talking me into buying one.

[–] kieron115@startrek.website 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yeah I was gonna say, swap out that carpeting with something a little less sensory-overload, maybe change the wallpaper, but I'm down. The colors are fine. Like you said, earthy.

[–] Micans@reddthat.com 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That is just wood veneer and a giant stone wall/fireplace. Maybe it could be refinished with a lighter stain?

[–] kieron115@startrek.website 1 points 2 days ago

Ohhh okay I thought it was some tacky lookin wallpaper.

[–] ChunkMcHorkle@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

This is certainly a 70s interior, but not the most 70s interior.

In the same way that the Mariana Trench remains mostly undiscovered, I don't know that anyone will ever truly plumb the depths of 70s interior design, but I can offer this as a counterpoint.

Shag carpeted walls, even all the way onto and across the ceiling.

Even Graceland has it, though these days they claim it was installed for "acoustic shielding" lol. This is the entrance to the Jungle Room at Graceland:

No, it was the style, like conversation pits and unmatched plaids and avocado or harvest green appliances.

And carpeted walls weren't in every house, but they weren't uncommon in the US as far as I know. At one point in my misspent youth, I lived in a house that had a den lined with lime green shag not just on the floor, but up and across the entirety of the far wall, while the other walls had matching green palm frond wallpaper with a chrome/mirrored background. This wallpaper visually delivered the carpet wall to you on the ricochet: even if you weren't looking at the carpet up the wall, you were looking at the carpet up the wall. It was, mercifully, a dimly lit room that did not get much light anyway.

My spouse remembers similar. It was a thing. There is a reason there are so few pictures of it left.

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Omg, I didn't realize this level of 70s was physically possibpe

[–] Glemek@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

We're reaching levels of 70s that are, frankly, irresponsible.

[–] sunbrrnslapper@lemmy.world 21 points 3 days ago (2 children)

That chandelier is spectacular.

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You just don't get this level of chandeliers these days

[–] stringere@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

I wish I had a picture of the one we made entirely from PBR cans for our White Trash Bash party.

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

No, they're found in a kitchen. That's a ship's rudder.

[–] tdgoodman@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Look at the huge color TV. What luxury.

[–] weimaraner_of_doom@piefed.social 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Should have splurged on the Curtis-Mathes console. TV, Record Player, Casette, and 8-Track all in one.

[–] stringere@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago

We had a zenith like that.

[–] homes@piefed.world 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Now you know where that “floor is lava“ game came from

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It looks lile a really bad texture in an early computer game

[–] ol_capt_joe@piefed.ee 1 points 2 days ago

It looks like Gollum's last moment with the ring

[–] stringere@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I can see the mint green appliances and linoleum floor in the kitchen from here.

[–] sulgoth@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I want colourful appliances again, linoleum is a still a no go for me

[–] stringere@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Check out Drew Barrymore's appliance line.

Edit to add: https://beautifulbydrew.com/collections/appliances

They're all black and white on the main page but click through to an item and you'll see the color options.

I know it's not full on dishwasher/stove/fridge appliances but they're still pretty.

[–] bearoftheisle 6 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Truly Austin Powers levels of groove

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 days ago
[–] stringere@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

Would that make this groovecore or groovegore?

[–] jade52@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 days ago

Would honestly love if my home looked like this

That ceiling better be popcorn asbestos.

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago

Wouldn't be a 70s interior wothout it

[–] Chaunticleer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 days ago

God I need this. Why did we think it could be better than brown

[–] Widdershins@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

That is a chandelier I would get the ricketiest stepstool to change a lightbulb for.

[–] slowmorella@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 days ago

everything apart from the carpet, the desk, the tv and the little desk for the tv is actually kind if nice.

[–] LouNeko@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Throw out the horrible carpet and this this place would look decent by modern standards.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago
[–] koella@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 days ago

The floor is literally lava?

[–] HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 days ago

Where's the Grooving Pit?

[–] nexguy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Looks like "The Shining'

[–] Bluegrass_Addict@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 days ago

I kept looking for someone hiding in the carpet like it's meccha chameleon.. ugh
