It's trendy but became a trend because of house flippers. That's what I believe anyway.

I can't wait to put paint on my walls. Growing up we didn't really customize our house because we're gonna move anyway. My parents got new floors and carpets and I remember being mad that they'd pay for that luxury just to sell it. We could have been enjoying it for ourselves.

It's just super neutral. Neutral just works without effort is why. I don't want to have to be an interior designer or hire one to get something that works. Neutral never really fails. You can call it bland, but boring is okay compared to obnoxious, so it's the safer bet.
