Nifty·Posted on Jan 23, 2024The Controversial "Inaccessible Landing" Home Trend Has Taken Over My Timeline, And I Bet You Hate It TooWaste of space. Come on now.by Matt StoperaBuzzFeed StaffLinkFacebookPinterestTwitterMail There are a few home design trends that consistently generate intense online debate. Everyone seems to have an opinion on gray flooring. People seem to be passionately divided about painted brick. And I feel like there's always talk about how much people hate glass shower panels. Right now, there's a design trend everyone is talking about that I never even thought about before. Alan Corey shared one of his "least-liked" design elements of suburban designs, and it's this:One of my least-liked design elements of suburban design is this inaccessible landing I see in foyers. Any creative solutions for "staging" it out there? pic.twitter.com/YCoCwF11LN— Alan Corey | Real Estate Maximalist (@RealEstateMaxi) January 16, 2024 Twitter: @RealEstateMaxi The inaccessible foyer landing:This looks oddly familiar…Rural Oklahoma pic.twitter.com/Ti7QNI6Lnw— Dusty (@DarkSkynet) January 22, 2024 Twitter: @DarkSkynet Which, honestly, what a waste of space! Some people responded to the post with how they decorated their own landing... This person put an illuminated longhorn skull on theirs:We added a carved, illuminated, longhorn skull to ours as a focal art piece. pic.twitter.com/ZBp4iBJXBr— Brian Erb (@brianerb) January 16, 2024 Twitter: @brianerb This person decorated it with a plant:I would decorate it the same as any shelf basically. You just have to get the balance and scale right. Much larger items. You could even make it a focal point like this which I think looks quite nice. pic.twitter.com/0Xb4bQOoKP— ❤️🩹 Kate (@theantiherokate) January 17, 2024 Twitter: @theantiherokate And this person made it into a fort:I turned our space-wasting landing area into a kids fort, with a ladder and some lights pic.twitter.com/r5mJxZllx6— Coleman McCormick (@colemanm) January 17, 2024 Twitter: @colemanm Then things got a bit wild, with people offering up their own suggestions... ...the most obvious being a Chuck E.
