Wouldn't it have been interesting to film most of the video in black and white?

How do we know if the Grey I see is the same Grey you see???

I just recently learned this, but did you know that “Florida Ceilings” are a Canadian design term, just like Chesterfield? In your research, did you encounter other exclusively Canadian trends?

How fast do design trends for houses/house decor come and go? To me this should be slower than fashion trends since you can’t change your furniture as quickly as your wardrobe, but has the internet sped this up too?

I wanted to ask if this is an american phenomenon only, has Taha experienced this as well? In my country I feel like its mostly white, not gray Also, great video!

In the vid you talk a bit about the 2008 crash and flippers impact, but were there other impacts to home design/ color that were discussed but would have cluttered up the story of grey that you felt you had to leave out?

There’s that mug again!! Curious to know how you got to be in possession of something with my local football team’s logo on it?

Milian Ingco

was building the website a part of the space to play theme?
