There’s no such thing as bad or good taste, when it’s limited to one’s choices.
When you are calling your own taste good, or some other person’s taste good just because, and make it something social - that’ll always be bad taste.
Yeah, and market doesn’t have anything to do with taste.
About the photo - if not for that horrible floor, I’d like it. Should have made it solid dark gray.
EDIT: LOL, I see a few people strongly disagree with the fact that it’s really badtaste to pretend that taste is not subjective.
That’s actually the only thing determining “bad” and “good” taste - when the thing’s appearance clearly shows that the author thought their taste is “good” by association alone, like Disney Star Wars or maybe by imitating a style which is “good”.
There are, of course, things like laws of composition and colors chosen etc, but these are still not objective and differ for various kinds of art.
Ah, I understood immediately how ugly it was. It’s my kind of ugly and I’d never tire of it, but I understand. Purple is a lot, especially such a bold purple.
For marketability, it’s horrendous. While I’m open to dramatic, unique, and off the wall stuff it’s still not my taste.
BUT! I would absolutely take advantage of the discount I’d get on the property after it’s spent over a year on the market. I also wouldn’t be in a rush to remodel, but would look for ways to highlight it till the novelty wore off.
Yeah, everyone has an ugly that speaks to us, purple veined marble is apparently one of mine. And that’s part of the beauty of people. Seeing this makes me more sympathetic to the people who love neon animal prints because I too have terrible taste in my own way.
Pastel might have been too washed out with the purple in the (marble/quartz) rock but anything would be an improvement from this. It looks like the color you’d find at a McDonald’s indoor slide.
