In today's video we're taking a look at vintage design trends that are making a comeback and whether or not they should be here to stay! I love me a good throwback but sometimes the past... should stay in the past. What do you think? Should we bring back these trends?

Parquet floors: we moved into our 1986 home last year and instead of getting rid of the orange parquet floor, we sanded and restained it in a darker neutral walnut with a satin finish. It goes so well with our MCM/art deco living room. It is absolutely STUNNING!
Yes, vintage parquet in mint condition is forever beautiful.
Completely agree. Parquet is so beautiful and it's easy to revive if you have to.
That orange hue is aged Estapol - a timber varnish that we may in retrospect have been better without.
@@andrewmcgalliard8987 That is all subjective to personal taste.
I had vintage parquet flooring, fantastic. Then my house flooded, all those individual tiles swelled up and basically the floor exploded. Bad day for me !
I love velvet curtains! They are so luxurious looking, never wrinkle. I pair them with linen curtains as the light filtering and the velvet can be used to block out light
YES! I love my velvet curtains!
Maybe not in decor, and that is a big maybe, but travertine, being a stone, will be here forever, The coliseum in Rome, anyone? Vintage parquet is divine in all of its shapes and colors. Keeping it in nice, mint condition, having complementing furniture to it, will keep it looking like the classic that it is, forever relevant.
I didn't realize that chrome /stainless steel / silver and parquet flooring had ever gone out of fashion tbh. Hasn't parquet flooring been the ultimate floor treatment for centuries now?
Yes, it is the ultimate treatment and forever beautiful.
80's kid here. I grew up with(in? lol) conversation pits. A con is that the dirt and dust collects in these pits. Because all dust and dirt particles naturally tend to fly down to the lowest point on the floor and collect there, which in this case would be a conversation pit.
LOL, DD great intro!!! The only thing you are missing is Mr. Bigglesworth. 🤣🤣🐈🐈
I know!! I’m not a cat person, I’ll have to bring my dog to the studio next time and redo it 🤣
@@mrphoenixgrey yes!! 🤣🤣🤣
Ok who among us needs to see Design Doggy? We MUST see him!
As long as the singing fish plaque doesn't make a comeback!😂
Hahaha...my dad loved his singing fish. I had to laugh when he laughed.
I am an Australian & I take a firm stand against mullets. It's a trend I never want to see again along with rat-tails & baggy ass jeans.
I was almost crippled by a conversation pit (all rough stone) at night. It hurts just looking at a photo of one.
Travertine is very popular in Australia around the pool and as outdoor flooring as it doesn't get anywhere near as hot as other materials, so your feet don't burn in summer
I can't help it. I am obsessed with conversation pits. I would put one in my house on purpose if I could lol
Stainless steel: While watching your examples I could totally see how the design of the time made a huge difference in whether it looked upscale/Art Deco or builder grade.
I can't even with maintaining marble/travertine.
Conversation pit: Hell no. Who tf wants to crawl into a pit? And it just doesn't relate to the rest of the room. What do you do, have lounge chairs facing it like a pool? LOL.
Velvet: Lint magnet. Only for pillows and curtains.
Great video. Loved it! And loved the Bond opening. 🤣
Polished nickel is much warmer than chrome.
I think that it is quite interesting that the Flos taccia can be recently seen in advertisement way more often and now, of course, in your video. It was designed in the sixties, so I expected it to be visible during the hype of the mid-century modern style during the last couple of years. But now, when the trend swings back to post-modern, it suddenly appears in various ads (at least as far as I noticed).
In my interpretation,this shows how versatile and way ahead of its time this goergous lamp was.
Truly one of my most favorite lighting relatet designs.❤
Anyway, great Video. Your content is great!
It’s true. I had a velvet couch once. That fabric always looked and felt good and I could wipe it clean with a wet washcloth.
Love all your videos!! Thank you Phoenix for sharing your thoughts, opinions, and amazing sense of humor 👏 I'm your fan!! ❤
love chrome, velvet and parquet. 😁
It's almost like styles keep changing quickly so we feel the need to constantly buying more things.
That is how they want you to feel. Don't succumb to pressure.
Some I like, especially cool toned metals. I won't go back to big hair though.
People can't just replace furnature like a shiny dresser just because it's dated. Fast furniture is bad for the environment if it still fits the purpose keep it. Maybe paint it to give it a refreshed look.
I LOVE this video. Thank you for talking about these things. Especially the chrome and stainless steel. I have become mesmerized with decorative items made of this. However, I really don't know exactly what to do with it or how to style it tastefully. You mentioned a lot of things I really do think about.... LOL. You have such good taste and practical ideas. And I love your outfit today.
Travertine just makes me think of Rick Owens’ fabulous house in Concordia, Italy ❤❤❤
Design Daddy
I love that bumble bee armchair on your set❤
Love these returning trend videos Phoenix. And yes on the durability of velvet! I bought a 1940
s era couch and chair recently that had been reupolstered in a velvet, and it is so easy to clean! and yet all my life I was under the impression that velvet needed to be kept under glass . . .
Design for us Daddy I love chrome.
I know it’s unrelated but you look FABULOUS 🔥
I feel like conversational pits fell out of fashion at the same time as swing parties did, when a certain STD changed the game.
I looooove parquet flooring!! Our 60s house came with it, luckily not in an orange tone, though. Once we sanded and varnished it, it came out beautiful, and it's so easy to maintain even with our kid and pets. At least where I live newer build usually come with horrid laminated floors which are definitely not as timeless as parquet.
I'd also love to have a conversation pit 😅but it does mean either find another old house that has one already to fix, or literally building a new house, lol, which looks almost impossible to us even in the future.
Love DD and agree with most of his his advice. Though I have to say.I’ve had a travertine kitchen/ dinning table for over 25 years. And it’s aged so beautifully with zero care nor attention. I can put hot pans on it without any fear. It gets more beautiful with age. Most of my friends think it’s new and don’t believe it’s 1\4 of a century old.
Agree on all takes, but I'm not giving up my Juicy tracksuits as long as I can keep buying them off the rack. But, I only wear them at home alone. They're TV watching, snuggle or cuddle puddle attire period.
I AM COMING AFTER YOU BIG DADDY, DON'T STOP ME.
Can I ask which Kind of velvet? Cheap velvet is really bad. How about cotton velvet, I know you wouldn't object to mohair. You really should specify, they all lay differently, and cheap really looks bad to me. I think it is cotton velvet that doesn't really leave an ass mark on sofa when you get up.
Also, I believe that if a very well made mirrored dresser or a console (just one) as long as it perfectly fits the space, sets up an interesting juxtaposition in say a farmhouse type of interior. A matter of intentionally breaking the rules.
I am another type of designer, but I like to set up that extreme contrast in the styles. A drop of ultra lux in a casual style. This might be too extreme, but do you ever do this? If the question makes sense.
IMHO, sunken convo pits, are very particular to a certain architecture, it wouldn't work in a cape cod house. I know you do it in practice but don't talk much about the interior style be in keeping (somewhat at least) with the style house.
Great vid Daddy.
Yes, I had seen one of two well placed mirrored furniture pieces and the result is lovely. Cotton velvet is the high quality one.
@@vaderladyl Thank you.
My husband had a rockin mullet back in the day. He's 70 now, so thats a no go.
Pits: Also, in Cali, check your flood INS. May not be covered. If, had the room, I’d have one. Maybe on another home, because I’m buy and hold. Lol. But you’re realistically talking a 20 mil home at that point-at least in LA. This city sucks, we get it. 😂
I love a sunken living room
The 80s had some good shit.
We never get a shirtless moment anymore.I do have other things to watch,you know.
Weren’t conversation pits called sunken living rooms back in the day?
That chrome tray looks like from operation room. I feel like I find kidney on it...
GenZ are GenX's Kids - So, yeah, all the stuff from the 90s is gonna come back, as they're raiding our garages
No conversation pits . No .
Travertine is cool
Sunkin living room while cozy, not practical
first!!
Thanks for always watching 🤍

You might think that jumping in and out of zoom while you are talking adds emphasis, but it is actually headache-inducing and a very poor video editing technique at that level of frequency. Stop it.
