"Deep greens and blues are not the colors you choose, but he’s painted your entire apartment in a mind-bending swirl of them anyway."

From "Why You Shouldn’t Room With James Taylor" by Jenn Knott (The New Yorker).

I love James Taylor and the referenced song, and I'm not saying the whole humor piece is great, but it's there and it might amuse you if your quirky sense of humor aligns. I'm blogging it because I can imagine feeling so bonded to James Taylor that deep greens and blues would be the colors you choose, and because I've been thinking about the trend these days to drain color out of everything. Here's a TikTok I ran into yesterday, from Interstellar Isabellar, complaining about chromophobia in interior design:

@interstellar_isabellar Replying to @EliZabeth ik this was messy but tell me your thoughts🥑💭! Here is dr Truesdells video: @Nicole Truesdell Nothing against minimal interiors or digital nomads themselves! It’s bad when it’s….everything. You know what i mean? #minimalism #coffeeshop #cafe #digitalnomad #tech #startup #riseandgrind #hustleculture #hustlecultureistoxic #minimalist #aesthetic #color #interiordesign #architecture #realestate #neoliberalism ♬ Energy Manifestation - Stock19

ADDED: Even as I do not endorse the entire New Yorker humor piece, I am not endorsing the political and economic analysis in the second half of that video. Don't let it aggravate you any more than it needs to. That is, don't read an Althouse endorsement into it. I'm interested in the design trend that goes against color.
