everything works on a big house so big house
This is the bane of my OH's Pinterest board. It's all staged 2 or 3 wall shots that don't factor in normal living spaces - ie no plugs or power for "home offices", or real storage requirements for "nurseries"...babies are small, why would you need more than a drawer for all their clothes?
We got bifolds this year cos the best option for our small space. Garden access is through the house only so we want to be able to open the full width when we need to. Before we had patio doors which weren't a great use of space with a small patio because the doors stuck out into the space. The bifolds fold to one side and give us more usable space.
I know they are on the naff list now but they work better for us than crittal, sliding doors or whatever the next thing is (probably small pane wooden french doors like the ones we just took out and I'm not even joking, the cottage core/Bloomsbury thing is getting bigger)
Basically, everything works on a big house so big house people are free to follow/set trends. Little house people are better off looking at what will work in their actual space.
