And I feel like there’s always talk about how much people hate glass shower panels.

I, for one, am a fan!

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

Which, honestly, what a waste of space!

Some people responded to the post with how they decorated their own landing…

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

Then things got a bit wild, with people offering up their own suggestions…

Ultimately, this is one of those things I’m pretty sure we can ALL agree is a home design trend that should NEVER exist in the first place.
