We need more electric outlets, not fewer. And for those outlets we need walls.

The knob and pulls are better features for everything, even TVs and car radio systems. Bring back knobs! 馃槉

My separate kitchen is my sanctuary of sorts. It's a place I can busy my hands and calm my brain.

I never liked the vessel sinks. I'm glad I'm not the only one.

I've lived in open concept for over 50 years - love it.

This was the most information packed, broad topic 30 minutes I've seen, but you didn't mention open shelving in kitchens. The worst design ever.

I love old homes, especially built before the 1950s. I love the beautiful hardwoods, timeless distinctive features and the quality of workmanship. I prefer separate, enclosed spaces, that are designated for their specific function. I would never buy a new home. I really hate how the garage dominates.

Open concept versus contained room homes is a matter of taste and not a negative. I live in an open concept home, and while I can acknowledge some of it's drawbacks, i love it.<br>And chopped up homes have their pros and cons too. <br>It is a matter of taste and lifestyle and I don't think it's fair to pass judgment.
