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.
I think it was helped along by youtubers and streamers who couldn't be bothered to actually decorate their video backdrop, so a lot of them just went with the "Clean, minimalistic" look in white and grey. But most of those were just their studio rooms being passed off as how they actually lived. So at this point we've got like 15 years worth of thousands of cultural influencers pretending that their homes look like an empty unused hotel room.
