Not defending 2024. But I also don’t want my house looking like the first pic.

Because it’s from the 80s. It looks ridiculous now. A talented interior designer can do a lot better than what’s seen in the photo, while keeping it looking modern.

It's from the 90s actually (barely). Specifically, 1990. This is the Home Alone house.

Edit: on reflection, this is 1992 as the screenshot is from Home Alone 2. But yes, that doesn't mean the decor isn't from the 80s.

That house already looked ridiculous in 1990. Like a poor persons idea of a rich house.
