35 People Share The Craziest Home Designs They've Seen

Home Shaming Facebook group gems.

"De gustibus non est disputandum," or "de gustibus non disputandum est," is a Latin proverb meaning "In matters of taste, there can be no disputes."

It basically means that people have different tastes, and not everyone likes the same things. This applies to clothes, food, interior and exterior home decoration, etc.

And boy, do we have an article that proves this proverb is so right. Today, we are going to talk about homes.

Better yet, we are going to show you photos. Even though your house is your castle, poor design and decorating decisions can still affect you.

The wildly popular Facebook group "That's it, I'm home shaming" steps in to help with this. The 480k-strong group, which was Rhiannon Pfeiffer's idea, lovingly mocks the interiors and exteriors of the ugliness they've seen that haunt them in their dreams.

Everything is done in good humor for entertainment and to raise a little awareness of aesthetics. We have selected 35 of the craziest home designs, and we know you are going to love them.

Hopefully, not enough to use them as inspiration. Take a look and see what we mean.

Oh, even though it is mostly wrong, in this case, we can say it's okay to judge.

Decorating a home is a challenge, but there are ways to play it safe. Bright and dark colors should be utilized sparingly and with caution because the majority of consumers prefer sophisticated neutral décor.

White interior walls and engineered wood floors are always a good choice, professional designers say. And it is true.
