Where's the Avocado Green?
Grew up in Metairie with appliances this color and the wood panel walls in the living and dining rooms. House was built in 1958.

All dystopian societies are like this.

Not my house! Every room is a distinct color and theme and bright. I grew up in a house like that. The Richmond style my dad called it. All my relatives had different colored rooms.
We had:
The yellow room
The blue room
The Lincoln room
The Florida room
Among others. Told my wife when we bought our house is first thing we are doing is painting the house. Her sister has the classic modern pale monotone walls and it’s so depressing
I love our house. And a nice red brick on the outside!

see no teal in the 90's. Graphic is shite.
Was this real? When we moved into our house there was A BUNCH of teal. It was horrific to cover up
We thought the sellers must have been nut jobs.

Didn't the 60s and 70s have a bunch of dark browns, bright yellows, pinks, greens and oranges?
Yeah, I remember the 70's and 80's being far more colorful than the chart suggests.

I actually like more color. Not gaudy looking, but everything today is so generic. I understand people got shite going on all the time and its easy to just keep it basic, but this is something we see in pretty much everything. Architecture, etc, etc Its all uniform.

Johanna Gaines is a menace.

Modern car colors are the worst kind of generic corporate bland around.

My house is accessible beige in all of the main spaces. The bathrooms and bedrooms are all lighter matte shades of blue or green. We just add color with pillows, rugs, decorations. In the early 2000s, I painted my previous home interior with dark colors. Dark greens and burgundy’s and browns. Felt like I was living in a simulation of the Clue board game. I much prefer the neutral. Feels like I am at a beach house you would see in Coastal Living.

Same, although I dont know how people saw inside their home at night with such dark walls and the lighting available at the time.
They went to bed.

For those who were not around in the 70's, this is a pretty good summary of some of the colors in play in many people's houses:

Palate is an inverse to the advent of color photography, televisions, and screens everywhere. That plus lighting improvements...wonder if that has to do with a lot of this.

I tell my wife this all the time, we have a lot of nice oak in our house. I refuse to paint everything white.
