    Ultra modern/contemporary feels like a place you'd go for an appointment - and then go home afterwards.

    My only thing about clear storage is that it’s very neurodivergent friendly. Now, I will say that as someone with ADHD I do have most of my storage hidden in cupboards/closets/other closed storage, but within those units I try to keep everything as visible as possible because otherwise I just literally forget it exists.
  • I have never seen a ceiling faucet(I need to get out more!) my kitty would be working that hanging faucet like a stripper pole 😅
  • @Kevin15047
    I think ultra modern can work very nicely in certain spaces. Like the secret lair of a super villain, or... Nope, really just a villain lair.
  • My kids would love that ceiling faucet. It's perfect for water fights!

    I keep my acrylic storage closed but I love it- I can find any jewelry, shoes or shirts that I had from dinosaur years and would not use if I didn’t see them.😂😂😂
  • “My OCD ass.” I spit my iced tea out laughing and immediately subscribed.
  • @g.e.2900
    OMG, what! Ceiling faucets!!! Get out! I didn't even know they existed! No, just NO!
  • I really love and appreciate this is mostly about designing practical not just aesthetically. We don’t live in an Instagram picture lol.
  • I really wouldn't mind having clear storage containers in a walk-in closet. That way, I can save a lot of time looking for things in drawers or other types of non-see through storage options. In summer, I like to put my woolens in airtight containers with cedar chips to keep moths away. Since I don't have see-through containers, I wind up storing everything in black plastic bags in the basement. 😝
  • In regards to a shower shelving alternative to schluter, RB3 makes a stainless steel shower niche shelf that has long horizontal cut outs for drainage and hanging face cloths etc and is installed with a small gap in the back to prevent water from collecting against the tile/grout. I just used a set of four for a long vertical niche and they look and perform wonderfully, and, bonus, they’re significantly more affordable per shelf than Schluter.

    I have ADHD and clear storages drive me crazy 😆 There's too much information at once, too many colors, clutter, and talking about cleaning these things and traces of dust everywhere! Super video 🇨🇦💛

    I was 7 when I stood up to get out of the tub and bumped the glass shelf, a sheet of glass laying on two brackets. Cut my foot, 4 stitches. Still have the scare 60 years later. If you are going to have glass shelves ANY where, don't have children.

    "it's one big stick coming down in front of your face" 5:17 "I don't want a big post in front of my face" 5:23 ....Love the double entendres
  • @Sk76547
    The only place I disagree with the clear storage is the pantry- just because of the practicality of being able to see what food you have while keeping it organized!

    You’re right on this! Great and practical info for your listeners. Carol from California
