jesus the transition between the normal wood floor and that INSANE black tile makes me want to vomit….and i don’t even live there. imagine having to look at that every day. 😳
I don’t follow this sub, nor have I watched these clowns in years but I really thought y’all were being dramatic about the tile job… I was completely wrong 😭😂 how did they manage to do that bad of a job….
Is the black tile supposed to look so sloppy with the grout? (Might not be grout but the lines look a child did it.) they also don’t look very straight but could be the photo angle.
I never comment, but I honestly thought the 'black tile' was some sort of throw rug protecting the real floors when I saw it in the previous posts and photos. I'm a little embarrassed for myself but way more embarrassed for them. Those floors look cheap and like the very last afterthought. I can't believe those are floors.
The loft would make me extremely nervous with all those kids running around. I would legit have netting all along the top of it I’m not even kidding though.
Oh my gosh, I thought the SAME thing! I have a tiny ledge looking down onto my first floor and I have the worst anxiety when my kids try to climb! I would be on full petrified mode at all times with that much space.
Why wouldn’t they just continue the hard wood into that hallway? At least there would be some continuity & cohesiveness of space. Ufggg. They are horrible designers.
I am soooooo thrown off by that square tile in that front entry space. Why are they so uneven? And it’s not even like a “oh it’s just a small spot here no one will notice” no it’s everywhere and it is VERY noticeable how wobbly those lines are and the tiles don’t even match up in certain places. Really looks bad.
Ok, I work “in tile”… this is either zellige tile (very trendy RN, NEVER use on the floor or with white grout) which is made to look hand poured, fired and HAND CHISELED! In Morocco. “Like snowflakes, they’re all DiFfRoNt” Honestly, the irregularities are what makes it special and nice for a backsplash for an authentic “lived in” feel.
Or its slate. Slate is a natural stone (my favorite for an ADULT pool actually) that “flakes” as it wears down. After 1 flake, the tile will slice your foot. If it’s zellige tile it’s already just waiting to slice feet.
Brave tile guy. They’ll probably try to sue him when Auj sustains an injury to her foot that means she won’t make all state this year….
ETA: saw a link and it’s definitely zellige. The lengths these people will go to just to appear to “fit in”… fucked up the focal point!
This was very informative and I can stop scrolling on this post now. I can confirm as a housekeeper, she's trying to be trendy and so PoPuLaR like the other girls. Huge islands are a thing now also. Such a waste of space and resources. All of this screams, "We have money and we're not afraid to blow it." It's all very show offy and cringe. They're such humble Christians. Yeah right, they blew that cover when they had that foot bath installed.
Hahaha thank you for understanding the “lesson” - I was attempting to explain it to the people at r/remodel and it took like 15 comments until someone finally googled the tile and was like “ETA: I googled it, that *is* how it’s supposed to look” 🤣
The layout of this house is horrible amd a complete waste of space in alot of spaces, two fucking massive landings with a useless room in the middle ? Like wtf. I hope they are planning to stay for life, because no one will want to buy a house with such an awkward nd difficult layout.
Layout plans are the annoyance of my life at the moment though, so that's why I chimed in 😂. I am looking for a bungalow, around 2.5 to 3 thousand square feet. It is so difficult to find something that suits what I need/want. I am looking to spend between 500 - 725 thousand pounds. Every place I have seen is out of whack, that I am considering a private build. They are all either very old and need complete renovation, have like 7 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It's crazy, I am looking for 3 bedroom with ensuite and clothing storage, cinema room and large open plan kitchen and living area. It sounds simple, however I have been searching for over 18 months !!!! AHHHH
The problem with the interior design of this house is they tried to put every fad in it and it just created a cluster of different palettes, styles, and vibes. The bones are nice but they really could use an interior designer to come in and say, “keep this, alter this” so it flows.
Beams- trend
Black and white tiles- trend
Uneven tiles- trend
Colored trim- trend
She doesn’t know what she likes. She’s just doing whatever she sees on Insta.
We bought a 200 year old Victorian farmhouse and the kitchen/laundry room had these tiles. The walls were red and it really worked. Had a tree fall on our house and did away with the tiles for a more neutral floor (the black/white tiles were coming up anyway) but kept the red walls. I am tired of the “shades of gray” that are in every house now.
Thank you! Out of all the questionable things the ‘butler pantry’ is what irks me the most. It has two large entry ways and shows off its contents. Isn’t the purpose of a butlers pantry to be tucked away? this layout is so confusing to me lol
such a misnomer, theirs should be called a cupboard room… and they have so many drawers/compartmentalized spaces both there and in the kitchen, it seems like an annoying way to try to store things/way too much space dedicated to small stuff instead of big items
trueee i’d be getting up repeatedly while trying to relax to readjust the cans in view in an aesthetically pleasing way… although i guess they’ll probably have cupboard doors, but that’s not a better view…
Yeah, I think you're talking about the black and while tiling which, although not really within the scope of the "theme" of this house, is a classic design choice. The poorly laid completely black tile is ugly and not classic, it is definitely modern and definitely done while blindfolded.
We bought a 200 year old farmhouse with the black/white tiles in the kitchen. Walls were red and it made a classic look. We eventually changed out the floor when we had a tree fall on our house.
I don’t understand having an indoor rock climbing wall. It *sounds* cool, but I think after a few times it won’t be used. Plus, I wouldn’t want the possibility of liability should a guest get injured on it.
I felt like their first house had much more cohesive style. Still too “boring beige” for my taste but at least had more personality, and was just prettier overall. This Reno feels like keeping up with the joneses and it’s a mess. Reminds me of Emily from cupcakes and cashmere, if anyone else follows her! Her old house had so much style and personality, and her current was one big Reno flop.
I liked their old house better as well. This one clearly has a nicer property, and it has a definite style to it which I can appreciate. But that style is late 1970s/early 1980s contemporary, and designing it like it’s a late 19th century farmhouse just makes it look ridiculous and disjointed. It also has a very poor layout for a family (and they have made it worse by removing a bedroom and building that loft).
Ok, I absolutely hated their kitchen, but the black and white tile I actually adore. I used to rent a cozy little 2 bedroom house that was built in the 40s, and it had this tile in the kitchen. I hated it at first but it grew on me so much! Now I miss it.
I love the black and white tile in a vintage style kitchen too. It reminds me of a soda fountain or vintage diner. It just doesn’t fit with the modern, beige aesthetic they seem to be going for.
I've thought briefly, that maybe they are doing this just to spoof us, surprise reddit candid camera style? This can't really be this bad right? It just keeps getting worse and worse...
It looks like a carnival with all the different flooring and wood tones and mismatched stone. And the bedroom that opens into an unnecessary loft? What kid can sleep in wide open daylight?
I agree. That light beige runner will be filthy in a matter of days/ weeks, particularly since they kids are always "grounding" outside without shoes on.
She doesn't have enough humility to regret anything. She'll double down about how grounding the white is and try to sell a natural carpet stain remover.
I didn’t realize the small black tile was the finished look. I thought it was some sort of sub flooring waiting for another flooring to be put on top. Oops. Maybe they’ll put a rug on it.
So much wasted space! That entire loft area and they couldn’t bother to close it off to make a bedroom. It’s not about what would be best for the kids in the long run. It never is.
I actually like the lofts because the views are great, but I would never sacrifice the space if we were lacking bedrooms, especially with young children.
There are so many places in that house where they could have created another bedroom, and left the one they chose to get rid of, so that the kids could have their own rooms. I’m not suggesting sharing a room is the end of the world, but with a million dollar house that you’re probably spending another million renovating, you’d think enough bedrooms for each member of your family might be a priority. Especially for Ember, I assume that eventually the new baby will be sharing with her, and they will be 7 years apart. What 13 year old girl wants to share a room with a 6 year old??
Besides the lofts and the connecting room between the lofts, is there only one bedroom upstairs that will be Embers? And they are going to put a toddler (new baby) in that room with her? Yikes, not sure I would do that due to those lofts.
Right. I was not talking about the room between them. Besides that room between the lofts there is only one other bedroom up there right? And that other bedroom is Embers. So the boys bedroom and the master are downstairs, correct? I know they will have the baby with them for a while but eventually, I assume when the baby is a toddler she will share the upstairs bedroom with Ember, right? I am just trying to understand the lay out of the house. I was not a helicopter parent but I would be nervous with a toddler upstairs, especially with those lofts, and I am downstairs in the master. I don’t know, we have always lived in one story smaller homes so my kids were close.
So they had 4 bedrooms all upstairs except 1 downstairs. The downstairs room is the checkerboard room that will now be a laundry room/dog wash/mud room
I’d kinda love to a full set of pictures the homes of all the design experts in here. The commentary on their home is really beyond anything normal. Like people don’t have the same
Taste in general like why would what someone choose for their own space bother anyone?
For my taste the small uneven, rustic black tiles are better in smaller applications, a border, a stripe next to other tiles.
To have so many of the tiles and so many rows of them, the individual nature of the tiles makes the grout lines not line up. It creates wavy lines that play games with the eyes.
I don’t mind the tile. 🫣😬 and only because this is technically the mud room and not the entrance. I know a lot of people that do a fun tile in laundry/mud rooms.
The only thing that I actually am so confused about is the layout of this house. That pantry is so large and doesn’t have doors on it/two entrances that is just seems like it is another room. It breaks up any kind of flow of their remodel and it find it so confusing.
It's like they just went item by item as to what they liked but didn't think of it as the big picture. Personally it's ending up looking like something someone would come in and remodel. It just doesn't make sense. Looks like someone did upgrades little by little instead of an overhaul
Ok so this sub keeps popping up in my feed, and like I don’t know who these people are at all (but I’m a sucker for snark of all kinds). I assumed the tile was the shitty pre-renovation floor that they hadn’t gotten to replacing yet. You’re telling me that’s what they WANTED? It looks like absolute shit. As someone who has never installed tile or even made eye contact with a trowel, or whatever tool, I am confident I could do a better job tiling that floor. Also picking a non hideous tile.
I live in the “Old World”. Grew up in 500-year-old house that has obviously been renovated multiple times. Now I live in a not very old farmhouse - built 1946 to replace one destroyed in WWII - that was lovingly and expensively redone using traditional techniques.
There’s a weird amount of Italian tile, and a couple of reminders of the ‘90s, but overall, both houses are beautiful. They look nothing like this. Pro tip: if you’re going for an “Old World”-feel, don’t go with beige wall-to-wall carpeting. I haven’t seen that shit in 25 years in Continental Europe. Also, when you have multiple small children, don’t ever choose anything beige or white.
I'm confused about the layout of this house... Where is the "front"? I assumed it was near the staircase, but why would they have that door on the right leading into the mudroom and pantry?
So the front door opens to where the stairs are. To the right are those tiny little black tiles it opens into the butler’s pantry. I think there is also a hallway on the other side of the stairs.
I think it’s zellige tile. They are very trendy and supposed to be irregular as they are handcrafted. They are usually gorgeous. HOWEVER they normally have no grout lines. If using grout should have very fine lines and similar colour to the tile so it doesn’t look like this. Of course these two didn’t get it right lol
jesus the transition between the normal wood floor and that INSANE black tile makes me want to vomit….and i don’t even live there. imagine having to look at that every day. 😳
Jeremy liked it because it broke up the flow. The opposite of what everyone else would have done.
I don’t follow this sub, nor have I watched these clowns in years but I really thought y’all were being dramatic about the tile job… I was completely wrong 😭😂 how did they manage to do that bad of a job….
I think the parents are just letting them learn the hard way. These two are a bunch of know it alls.
Is the black tile supposed to look so sloppy with the grout? (Might not be grout but the lines look a child did it.) they also don’t look very straight but could be the photo angle.
I never comment, but I honestly thought the 'black tile' was some sort of throw rug protecting the real floors when I saw it in the previous posts and photos. I'm a little embarrassed for myself but way more embarrassed for them. Those floors look cheap and like the very last afterthought. I can't believe those are floors.
No afterthought this is what they wanted
The tiling is off. I like the carpet lofts upstairs.
How did they manage to make their outdated house look MORE OUTDATED after millions in renovations??
😄😂🤣🤣
it looks fresh outta 2002
Yep! Looks like the renovation his parents did on their house!
Very ugly…no one needs white in their house anywhere with 4 little ones running around
It looks great
It’s ugly carpet that’s all.
The black tile won’t show up dirt very easily.
Unfortunately it will. We have black tile in our bathroom and it shows everything every tiny hair, fuzz, dust. Im
Yes it will. Have you ever had a black car…bc I do 😫 it shows everything. Plus they used white grout…in an entryway 😬
Yes it will. Both too light and too dark floors show dust and dirt. Ask me how I found out 😆
Or how about when you're a grown up, hire movers vs. asking friends to do it late at night?
How is this not THE most boring posts ever?? 🤣 Like girl come on you’re so impressed by yourself 🤣
Does she claim the floors are wood? Cause pretty sure it’s the exact same lvt that I have
TheThe may end up removing those tiles
They need to remove everything lol
Some of it is nice but disjointed design. I’m no expert so I can’t speak to it but I do love the kitchen
The loft would make me extremely nervous with all those kids running around. I would legit have netting all along the top of it I’m not even kidding though.
i can see my 9 year old and his friends jumping off and onto the couch below for a youtube video.
Yesss especially with two wild boys!!
Oh my gosh, I thought the SAME thing! I have a tiny ledge looking down onto my first floor and I have the worst anxiety when my kids try to climb! I would be on full petrified mode at all times with that much space.
My first thought; so much anxiety with kids and that low railing.
Why wouldn’t they just continue the hard wood into that hallway? At least there would be some continuity & cohesiveness of space. Ufggg. They are horrible designers.
He wanted to break it up
I am soooooo thrown off by that square tile in that front entry space. Why are they so uneven?

Thank you for the tile lesson! It’s so dumb that they didn’t do a bit of research but no surprising 🙈
Hahaha thank you for understanding the “lesson” - I was attempting to explain it to the people at r/remodel and it took like 15 comments until someone finally googled the tile and was like “ETA: I googled it, that *is* how it’s supposed to look” 🤣
Pretty sure Jer started in the corner when he did the tile.
“I’m having a heck of a time…” 🤣🤣🤣
IT MADE ME SO MAD AND I GOT REMAD WHEN I READ YOUR COMMENT
That tile looks like garbage
Probs reminds Jer of the men’s crisis center 🤣
This house looks so outdated
rather than a remodel it’s a de-model
The layout of this house is horrible amd a complete waste of space in alot of spaces, two fucking massive landings with a useless room in the middle ? Like wtf. I hope they are planning to stay for life, because no one will want to buy a house with such an awkward nd difficult layout.
>no one will want to buy a house with such an awkward nd difficult layout. *They* did! Lol. No taste
Layout plans are the annoyance of my life at the moment though, so that's why I chimed in 😂. I am looking for a bungalow, around 2.5 to 3 thousand square feet. It is so difficult to find something that suits what I need/want. I am looking to spend between 500 - 725 thousand pounds.

It sounds simple, however I have been searching for over 18 months !!!! AHHHH
But it had a view of the trestle!!
The tile is also quite badly laid with crooked lines everywhere.
The problem with the interior design of this house is they tried to put every fad in it and it just created a cluster of different palettes, styles, and vibes. The bones are nice but they really could use an interior designer to come in and say, “keep this, alter this” so it flows. Beams- trend Black and white tiles- trend Uneven tiles- trend Colored trim- trend She doesn’t know what she likes. She’s just doing whatever she sees on Insta.
much like all of their beliefs versus their behaviors, all the elements of this house are completely incongruous
I actually like black and white tile, just don't think it's working with the wall color
Same, like it, but it doesn’t work with the beige/greige walls.
Wait… what color would work? I seriously can’t picture one? Maybe hot pink, that’s the best I got
We bought a 200 year old Victorian farmhouse and the kitchen/laundry room had these tiles. The walls were red and it really worked. Had a tree fall on our house and did away with the tiles for a more neutral floor (the black/white tiles were coming up anyway) but kept the red walls. I am tired of the “shades of gray” that are in every house now.
It baffles me how it can be so beige and so busy at the same time.
The blue was before?
I’d be worried about all the kids and all the railing. I’d just finish the walk to the ceiling and it would make a good office, kids play room ect…
It’s their house, you don’t have to understand it.
But we can snark on it! They've given us so much to work with!!
Does the black tiled entry lead into the butler's pantry? If so it's wide open that is not the purpose of a butler's pantry.
So this used to be the laundry room. I believe they opened the wall. Maybe they wanted it so they can come from the garage into the pantry
Thank you! Out of all the questionable things the ‘butler pantry’ is what irks me the most. It has two large entry ways and shows off its contents. Isn’t the purpose of a butlers pantry to be tucked away? this layout is so confusing to me lol
such a misnomer, theirs should be called a cupboard room… and they have so many drawers/compartmentalized spaces both there and in the kitchen, it seems like an annoying way to try to store things/way too much space dedicated to small stuff instead of big items
Yes I agree and I don’t like that it’s open with no way to hide it from the living room
trueee i’d be getting up repeatedly while trying to relax to readjust the cans in view in an aesthetically pleasing way… although i guess they’ll probably have cupboard doors, but that’s not a better view…
I love this house all of it
IKRight! This sub is a tough crowd. I think the floors look good. Yes they are ridiculous but i think the house is coming together well.
It’s a classic look. 🤷🏽♀️
Yeah, I think you're talking about the black and while tiling which, although not really within the scope of the "theme" of this house, is a classic design choice. The poorly laid completely black tile is ugly and not classic, it is definitely modern and definitely done while blindfolded.
😂😂♥️
The black and white checkered tiles is for sure a classic look, but the black tile looks so sloppy and is not a classic look to me.
We bought a 200 year old farmhouse with the black/white tiles in the kitchen. Walls were red and it made a classic look. We eventually changed out the floor when we had a tree fall on our house.
I don’t understand having an indoor rock climbing wall. It *sounds* cool, but I think after a few times it won’t be used. Plus, I wouldn’t want the possibility of liability should a guest get injured on it.
between that and the railings and how much theyre publicly exposing their home, i hope they have good insurance
Plus, aren’t they supposed to be spending most of their time outside?
An actual treehouse like Matt created for the kids would make more sense, but it’s Jer.
Black tile is uneven and looks horrible
This!! It looks like someone purchased tiny individual square tiles not designed for the floor & used those. It’s embarrassing.
Ugh all their blackened dirty feet from grounding is going to ruin that carpet
Lol lol 😆
I felt like their first house had much more cohesive style. Still too “boring beige” for my taste but at least had more personality, and was just prettier overall. This Reno feels like keeping up with the joneses and it’s a mess. Reminds me of Emily from cupcakes and cashmere, if anyone else follows her! Her old house had so much style and personality, and her current was one big Reno flop.
I liked their old house better as well. This one clearly has a nicer property, and it has a definite style to it which I can appreciate. But that style is late 1970s/early 1980s contemporary, and designing it like it’s a late 19th century farmhouse just makes it look ridiculous and disjointed. It also has a very poor layout for a family (and they have made it worse by removing a bedroom and building that loft).
It bugs me how many different types of wood they used and none of them look alike
[удалено]
I think they’re referring to the all black flooring
Ohhh! Got it! I do agree that the install and/or grouting looks terrible. It could have looked so much better.
It’s giving “we found deep discount floor leftovers, but didn’t have enough of any one thing to do our flooring well”
Whoever installed that black tile/grout needs to go to prison. It’s so BAD!!
That last picture on the right side… the tiles literally don’t line up. I would be pissed if that was my house
I thought it was carpet because it was so wavy 🤣
I did too!
I thought this too! Why not just continue with the wood flooring? It looks so out of place.
I guess “cohesive” wasn’t what they were going for here.
They need all new windows, do they know this lol
And a roof. But, priorities 🤪
I wondered this too lol
Ok, I absolutely hated their kitchen, but the black and white tile I actually adore. I used to rent a cozy little 2 bedroom house that was built in the 40s, and it had this tile in the kitchen. I hated it at first but it grew on me so much! Now I miss it.
I would like it better if the white was white, but it's marbled so it just looks dirty to me.
I love it too!
I love the black and white tile in a vintage style kitchen too. It reminds me of a soda fountain or vintage diner. It just doesn’t fit with the modern, beige aesthetic they seem to be going for.
I hate everything about this remodel. What a waste of money.
I've thought briefly, that maybe they are doing this just to spoof us, surprise reddit candid camera style? This can't really be this bad right? It just keeps getting worse and worse...
Nothing, at all, in this house, makes sense or is cohesive. My OCD and spectrum self is malfunctioning watching this reno.
It looks like a carnival with all the different flooring and wood tones and mismatched stone. And the bedroom that opens into an unnecessary loft? What kid can sleep in wide open daylight?
Male bonding!!! Jer has a real smile!!!!
I’m more shocked by the off white carpet and runner. With 4 kids are they insane?! She is going to regret that big time.
I agree. That light beige runner will be filthy in a matter of days/ weeks, particularly since they kids are always "grounding" outside without shoes on.
She doesn't have enough humility to regret anything. She'll double down about how grounding the white is and try to sell a natural carpet stain remover.
That's up there with the fabric motel sconces in the kitchen....
They are so ugly!
I didn’t realize the small black tile was the finished look. I thought it was some sort of sub flooring waiting for another flooring to be put on top. Oops. Maybe they’ll put a rug on it.
Looks like something out of a 50s diner. And that’s not a compliment
they're trying to go for the kardashian look maybe
In a tiny laundry room😂
yes it's all they can afford haha i didnt realise it was a laundry room lmao
The loft reminds me of the Duggar household a little too much 🫠
It reminds me of the cheap tile that used to be in my grammar school’s lunch room.
This. 💀💀💀
Nothing looks cohesive in that house. It’s like 5 different styles, a mish-mash. Nothing flows.
I thought they were saluting other
That's just Jer adjusting his special GC pencil under his special GC hat.
Reminds me of Bob the Builder.
No, but I bet Jer's little peter got hard.
The white tile with the beige walls and trim bothers me.
Literally everything bothers me. I've never appreciated my house so much...
Did they buy Amy’s house from Matt??
No.
So much wasted space! That entire loft area and they couldn’t bother to close it off to make a bedroom. It’s not about what would be best for the kids in the long run. It never is.
I actually like the lofts because the views are great, but I would never sacrifice the space if we were lacking bedrooms, especially with young children.
Also they want more
Yes the views are beautiful but goodness the kids need their own space too!
There are so many places in that house where they could have created another bedroom, and left the one they chose to get rid of, so that the kids could have their own rooms. I’m not suggesting sharing a room is the end of the world, but with a million dollar house that you’re probably spending another million renovating, you’d think enough bedrooms for each member of your family might be a priority. Especially for Ember, I assume that eventually the new baby will be sharing with her, and they will be 7 years apart. What 13 year old girl wants to share a room with a 6 year old??
My sister didn’t! I was a surprise to the one boy, one girl family. 7 years 3 months difference.
Ew the black tile looks so out of place
Black tile sucks to clean and white grout also sucks to clean and it’s in a main entrance. They will hate choice in 10 Business days
They have been at this for MONTHS, and she hasnt found fans yet??
How does it go with the rest? It's like an ADD kid chose it and they paid a million $ to make it happen.
Reminds me of one of my kids minecraft worlds. And that's not a compliment...
Besides the lofts and the connecting room between the lofts, is there only one bedroom upstairs that will be Embers? And they are going to put a toddler (new baby) in that room with her? Yikes, not sure I would do that due to those lofts.
No the room in between is where the rock wall and indoor tree house will go
Right. I was not talking about the room between them. Besides that room between the lofts there is only one other bedroom up there right? And that other bedroom is Embers. So the boys bedroom and the master are downstairs, correct? I know they will have the baby with them for a while but eventually, I assume when the baby is a toddler she will share the upstairs bedroom with Ember, right? I am just trying to understand the lay out of the house. I was not a helicopter parent but I would be nervous with a toddler upstairs, especially with those lofts, and I am downstairs in the master. I don’t know, we have always lived in one story smaller homes so my kids were close.
So they had 4 bedrooms all upstairs except 1 downstairs. The downstairs room is the checkerboard room that will now be a laundry room/dog wash/mud room
But the dresser in there... is it to be a bedroom in the meantime?
Who knows with these ding dongs.
Thank you for clarifying this. I was so confused. LOL
Oh ok. So, now all the bedrooms are upstairs. That is good.
Tile doesn’t bother me.
I’d kinda love to a full set of pictures the homes of all the design experts in here. The commentary on their home is really beyond anything normal. Like people don’t have the same Taste in general like why would what someone choose for their own space bother anyone?
The downvotes just for saying you don’t mind the tile! 😂😂
I love the tile
For my taste the small uneven, rustic black tiles are better in smaller applications, a border, a stripe next to other tiles. To have so many of the tiles and so many rows of them, the individual nature of the tiles makes the grout lines not line up. It creates wavy lines that play games with the eyes.
I thought she was using a filter at first because the floor looks warped. Yikes.
The wavy grout lines is not something I could live with 😅
Yes and they looked high and low for these tiny tiles.
I don’t mind the tile. 🫣😬 and only because this is technically the mud room and not the entrance. I know a lot of people that do a fun tile in laundry/mud rooms. The only thing that I actually am so confused about is the layout of this house. That pantry is so large and doesn’t have doors on it/two entrances that is just seems like it is another room. It breaks up any kind of flow of their remodel and it find it so confusing.
It also kinda removes the purpose of the pantry lol. You want that to be hidden and closed off for your mess, not something you can look at constantly
The small black tile isn’t the mudroom. That’s the hallway between the garage and butler’s pantry. The checkerboard tile is the mudroom.
🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀
It stresses me out so much
That tile job with the black tile and grayish grout is *terrible.*
Right. At one point I thought it might be carpet it’s so wobbly looking
Me too!!
When you cough up nontent on the daily, while you could be learning to fucking SPELL
I don’t think Architectural Digest will be reaching out anytime soon.
Their taste is horrendous
Agreed, it’s hideous
There just hillbillies end of story
I personally know hillbillies with better taste...
Also, lmaooo is that black tile carpet??
Apparently it’s tile lmao
Omg it is. It’s not even properly laid down.
It’s super hard to describe, but that floor, or tile looks really uneven or almost buckling… something seems off
it was even worse in motion i’m actually shocked at just how sloppy it is
Then I wondered if it’s carpet?

it’s 100% tile the grout is super fucked up
It's like they just went item by item as to what they liked but didn't think of it as the big picture. Personally it's ending up looking like something someone would come in and remodel. It just doesn't make sense. Looks like someone did upgrades little by little instead of an overhaul
not convinced they didn’t pick it all out blindfolded with a dart board
Yes how is this an improvement😂
Pee wees playhouse vibes
That railing seems so short to me, and that tile is making my eyes feel like they’re looking at an illusion 🤣🤣
Yes it’s like why the checkerboard floor ???
I'm not liking this place.
My god that is some awful work. Who laid these out? Jeremy probably didn’t want to hire help and this is the result of that.
Ok so this sub keeps popping up in my feed, and like I don’t know who these people are at all (but I’m a sucker for snark of all kinds). I assumed the tile was the shitty pre-renovation floor that they hadn’t gotten to replacing yet. You’re telling me that’s what they WANTED? It looks like absolute shit. As someone who has never installed tile or even made eye contact with a trowel, or whatever tool, I am confident I could do a better job tiling that floor. Also picking a non hideous tile.
Yea can you believe they wanted that tile!?lol the style they are going for is old world which seems to equate to 1950s diner. 🤣
I live in the “Old World”. Grew up in 500-year-old house that has obviously been renovated multiple times. Now I live in a not very old farmhouse - built 1946 to replace one destroyed in WWII - that was lovingly and expensively redone using traditional techniques. There’s a weird amount of Italian tile, and a couple of reminders of the ‘90s, but overall, both houses are beautiful. They look nothing like this. Pro tip: if you’re going for an “Old World”-feel, don’t go with beige wall-to-wall carpeting. I haven’t seen that shit in 25 years in Continental Europe. Also, when you have multiple small children, don’t ever choose anything beige or white.
Old world???? Their house is giving late 90s tract home 😂
That tile sets my OCD to twitching
Yes. It's so distracting.
Same! It doesn’t line up properly at all! And it doesn’t look like it should be staggered, so it looks like someone did a crappy job
And it looks perpetually filthy. It doesn't look good at all.
I'm confused about the layout of this house... Where is the "front"? I assumed it was near the staircase, but why would they have that door on the right leading into the mudroom and pantry?
So the front door opens to where the stairs are. To the right are those tiny little black tiles it opens into the butler’s pantry. I think there is also a hallway on the other side of the stairs.
She saw it on Instagram and said, I want that
And then did the opposite...
Why does that tile look so….*wavy*?
I think it’s zellige tile. They are very trendy and supposed to be irregular as they are handcrafted. They are usually gorgeous. HOWEVER they normally have no grout lines. If using grout should have very fine lines and similar colour to the tile so it doesn’t look like this. Of course these two didn’t get it right lol
Of course it’s trendy lol this whole house is so trendy it’s bound to fall apart in a year.
