Renovation Goldmine

Watching Renovation Goldmine on HGTV, and episode 3 they renovate a billiard table and a poker table in the most ugly yellow and tan and green I've ever seen... omg to me they just look hideous. The tan completely lacks depth too, which is not complimenting those tables at all.

Are they color-blind? This is absolutely madness. The clawed feet of the pool table should look commanding and cool, and looked so much better in plain wood than painting it an ugly yellow.

They find an old beautiful hidden mural by a local artist and get this, they painted over the whole thing a disgusting dark flat blue... what a disrespect to this beautiful original whimsical artwork that they found.

They don't know when not to paint. Covering beautiful vintage pieces, that have carefully matched veneers and inlays, and obscuring decades old, beautifully crafted millwork, with jarring, garish latex paint, in every episode. When you can't make adult design decisions, then just slather on the Glidden. And then surround the furniture in walls clad in the most unnerving geometric patters. Patterns that create the optical appearance of constant motion. Unsettling and oppressive. Turning every space into a kid's playroom.

They find the gold in the goldmine, and paint it lime green. I'd like to hear from their design victims a year later. Staggeringly tasteless.
