I would say that boring corporations make everything bland and mass marketable, regardless of immigration. To me this loss of culture is the obvious result of modern incentive structures. 20th Century: Hey, we can rapidly display photographs in a sequence; maybe we can turn this into a show to entertain the nation 21st Century: A movie is a thing where a guy says jokes and has a big fight at the end. Anything else isn't marketable. If you want to make them don't cultivate your passion from experience, stay in a classroom for years and collect thousands of dollars in debt. 20th Century: Cars sure are amazing machines, let's try and make a design that meets our needs 21st century: big car = good. Put in a bunch of computers and LCD panels that won't be repairable. Thankfully our regulations control all road infrastructure so people won't be able to make/sell their own 20th century: we have stuff to sell; let's build a place to sell it. 21st century: Build whatever you want as long as it's 10 miles away from everything else and costs you hundreds of thousands in permits. As a gen z adult on my own I have no problem being authentic; parents and schools controlling exactly where I was, what I was doing, their excessive surveilance and control, it prevented me from being sincere. Adults today have no respect for younger people, and now they act surprised that there's a giant mental health crisis where nobody has motivation.
I bought a new car in 2019. I was going to buy a blue car but the dealer offered a discount for a gray one because it was on the lot and the blue car was not. I'm 78 and no longer feel at home in America. The middle class has been hollowed out and all the money flows to the top. People are dying by the thousands because they can't afford healthcare, school shootings are routine, the quality of education is plummeting, and homelessness is at record levels. Climate change is being ignored. We just elected a fascist and felon for President. We have lost our bearings and are spinning out of control toward a chaotic and dark future.
I am going to recommend that you get out a little more. The economy is not a zero sum. The ultra wealthy are wealthy like never before, but overall most people are alot better than they used to be. Crime is down. School shooting are frequent (because guns) and every single is mentioned on the news for several days but do not directly affect many people. Homelessness is concentrated in certain high profile areas but its not any more frequent than it used to be. Climate change is not being ignored its just not a sexy political idea. I think for education, no one can agree on what a good education is - the ability to communicate, job skills, history and science, arts? It used to be simpler. Many of the things that you are discussing are happening all over the developed world not just in the US. Dont blame a political party or system. I think my generation was sold the idea that technology would save us and we would be richer than our parents. They lied.
@@MichaelJohnson-vi6eh If you can't distinguish between a party that has gone fascist and one that hasn't, you're living on a different planet. If you think that we aren't reacting to the climate change crisis because it isn't a sexy topic, you are uninformed. You think my view is skewed. I think your's is. I suggest you get out of your bubble.
I think he's overthinking it. If you have the desire and the money once you buy a grey or silver Corolla you can always have your local custom shop, put exterior shrink-wrap on the exterior for any design, image, or color you want. Once you buy your house you can paint the door red so long as you were smart enough not to buy in an area controlled by an HOA. Once you buy your suitcase you can always put on your choice of Punk stickers on it so it's easy to spot on the conveyor belt. If you want a lamp that's a bright color that is what Amazon is for anytime you wanted something specific or if you are an artist, you can just paint an existing one to suit your needs
Grey on cars keeps better and gives better resale value.On houses the main problem is poor fake composite siding and cheap windows, tacky roofing.... and mc mansions. I agree with what you say. But the most important reason, I think, is a home is not a home it's an investment. It's building of capital....It's a degenerating world.
Great analysis, it's cool to see our political and cultural trends through something simple and visible like design rather than just polling or demographics data. I knew I made a good decision when I subscribed.
Immigrant here we also like the applePie. You can be authentic, people want authentic have you see number of tourists on those old buildings in Europe vs the modern ones. People want color, grandeur, culture etc. Nobody likes boring culture even if its different is cool. Most immigrants know about Christianity and they are fine with it. Immigrants tourists in Europe are the fine example.
Hey thanks for your comment! You are correct, there are a lot of immigrants and tourists who appreciate and enjoy traditional Western culture, and I think that's great. But as I mentioned in the video, the systems have been changed to allow in many people who don't embrace the culture, and I think that's a contributing factor as to why aesthetics (among many other things) have reduced. I love to see outsiders celebrating and promoting elements of traditional American and Western culture, and I don't think they like the boring changes to designs either.
@@My_Take_Show In Indian Subcontinent only buildings or forts people give a second glance are the ones built according to Persian, British or Indic architecture. Everyone likes quality but yes immigrants are easy to pass BS through, the BS of glass cubes. Everyone likes grandeur, culture and art. Sad to see how Chinese are building new without traditional Chinese architecture.
In my Australian youth, a common joke (I first heard from a young Paul Hogan on his show from the early 70s) was 'what is the difference between Ameriericans and yogurt... yogurt has culture.' I dont think this phenomenon is new as much as we have never had such corporate overshadowing of western markets promoting the easiest product and microtransactioning the luxury of beauty and colour, combined with social media encouraging the rise of scared entitled demographics who don't go after "tall poppys", the overly proud and arogant, but now go after anything different.
My brother and I are designing some flats in West London. We want marble interiors. I think we might be thinking along your lines. You can have fake marble, but why not have the real thing. It's a material which has been sort after for a very long time. Also we want to use some more modern construction methods. In other words we want to something a bit special.
As someone from a neighboring country to the US but culturally very different, mass produced has always seemed as the design trend there; and as part of what the marketing people call the xenials, Exaggerated inauthenticity seems to be the US trend since the 90's. I mean, you walk along cities of California and everything has a veneer of fake, exaggeration of styles from other places, Nevada too, you walk around Texas towns and they all seem so prefabricated, the parks, streets, such has been my experience, I wonder if I went to places along the Mississippi I could find some US authenticity ... and well, most stores are chains that feel so weird because you get to know one, you know them all kind of, they all just seem to be copies of some architect-designer plan. I get that feeling in chain stores in my own country too. Just my take... I think the migration part of your view does no work for your argument really. If you think about it, those that you call "americans" are immigrants from different times that brought in their culture, design, views, ways of life and mixed it into the pot, added exaggeration and lots of marketing, and you got "authentic US culture"
Funny how the Chinese SUV's looks like if Rolls Royce had a baby with art deco while all Western cars looks like pre-dented polygon cars. I don't like the Chinese cars, but they do look different. They're absolutely hUgE tho, it's ridiculous. I don't even know if they do quality control on these xeng-peng-ding cars. The only cars I'm able to recognize are Teslas and the Chinese cars, the rest looks like rentals from the airport, especially the grey Volvo one. I didn't know grey color could hurt my eyes. Back in the 90's metallic grey was considered the safest color for older men. It doesn't fade, it looks "timeless", it doesn't scream or offend anybody. Picture a Mercedes S-Class.
awesome / pretty fresh take on things i always want to talk about in my design/consulting world.... totally/ we talk about innovation and want to be creative trends but for the most part are afraid of being different and yes YES, the gray sameness wins all the time.... because, as you say, we're afraid of being different and offending someone and since we're all about the money, we have to make decisions that move the needle in the direction we want....
It has also happened to computers and cars. According to some research car colors have to do with cost. Computers because there is a perseption of being premium or that that is the color of apliances.
I really appreciate your view. Lots to consider. I think alot of the car color reason is that brighter colors dont stand up. They become hazy. As far as sky scrapers, i think its based on HVAC efficiency. Heating and cooling a monster building is not a cheap task, so reflect as much heat as possible. Good thoughts on culture though.
Interesting topic. I feel like you’re talking about me. I generally pick neutral colors. But for different reasons. Car. I’m a buyer rather than a leaser. My current car, I bought new, is now almost 8. I picked a very neutral color because I was afraid if I pick an impulsive colorful one I may grow tired of it and wish I had a different one. I feel I am less likely to grow tired of a neutral color. Seems like it has worked as I am still fairly happy with the color of my car. Resale, if I pick a pick a color that appeals to more people obviously I can sell it for more and gain more of my money back. I had my car appraised by a dealer and she commuted that it was a very popular color. So again the strategy seems to have worked. However, if I leased rather than bought, I imagine I’d have far less to loose by picking a more exotic color. House interior. Interior design strategy, I want that natural light to bounce around the room. So there is a lot of very light colors almost whites. Also, I want the accessories light a painting/picture/vase of flowers to be the thing that pops. Again like with the car it comes down to commitment and resale. It is easier and less expensive to change the picture and other accessories than it is to repaint the room/house. Also, you don’t know when you’re going to have to move these days and sell. You want the house to appeal to possible buyers. Closing, it’s just easier to mix and match boring neutral colors. Grey goes with anything and everything? And you can still wear one thing or two that pop with your neutral colors. Time, the further you go back in history the less common colorful things were. To some it was a symbol of status and wealth. That’s just not the case today. There is a practicality to investing in neutral colors. Especially, when you’re buying something that you hope will last a long time.
there were some interesting thoughts in the vid, but I do think that there were some connections that were made that are obviating a lot of stuff that has way more impact on the design choices than your points. For example, you jumped to millennials and immigration being one of the key factors for the "watering down" of "culture" without taking into consideration the different economic factors and changes to neo liberal systems that were going on globally. I think economics/industrialisation is a way bigger factor when it comes to inauthenticity in the goods manufactured, than any of the points you made. You could argue, however, that despite industrialisation, the 70s 60s were still more colourful, with more variation, to which I would argue that as automatization grows, having a variety of products becomes more undesirable. But idk, i haven´t researched enough, but I think that these two points, though they may sound logical, are very flawed and conclusions one would reach only from not having proper research, I would be happy to be proven wrong though
Hey thanks so much for your comment! Those are some excellent points for consideration. Economics and industrialization becoming globalized is definitely a huge factor.
I am glad that you said it only seems to go in one direction, other cultures are not in on our western game of late. Why, why is it so important that we don't offend, yet EVERYTHING offends the modern person? Why are we all afraid of confrontation of any kind? To the point that late teen boys and girls can not find each other for dating (and ultimate pro creation.) Why are we all characterless, opinionless but we all want to go with the flow, a flow. Well, study people very carefully and identify who it is that promotes this or keeps it going, then tell me that there's not a slight Sudo political element driving this. There's a force that wants us to be this way. Name names! That's hard, multiple forces, in mass, all having objectives that differ slightly from each other, it is all ill defined, but it's there. Study communism, Soviet style, China style, I don't care, all their architecture is stately, orderly, characterless, ugly grey concrete and that is a statement. Look at western architects who are known socialists, Louis Kahn for example, all his buildings are ugly grey concrete, making a political statement. When Lee Iacocca conceptualized the Ford Mustang and fought for it in 1965, statistics said that Americans were all moving to suburbs and making nuclear families and that they wanted reliable spacious family cars but The Mustang, a sportscar, was a smashing success. Do we think that Iacocca did not realize the risk he as taking, that he would probably loose his very high-up executive job at Ford if this thing failed. But he took a chance, he believed in something. This kind of spirit would not be appreciated by Who? By people who want control. And a red car, and a blue and white two tone car are not psychedelic, they are colors.
Everything in the U.S. is designed to be as cheap and disposable as possible--even the houses and the people who live in them. The U.S. is all about replacing everything and everyone. So why make something bespoke? It's just not worth it to a big mass manufacturer.
Right on. We have been talking about this for a long time. I've been a full time painter and sculptor for decades. I will remain anonymous here because it became overwhelming dealing with the public. You are correct but its almost worldwide. Just look at the uniformity in China!!. Its even the shapes of things. All cars are starting to look the same. Once they were great sculptures. But everything always changes and we will soon get out of this orwellian standard.
you have to choose to be different. Car/Motorcycle breakdown in my case: Red, red, red, red, silver, green, green/white, blue (Subaru WRX blue), and black.
I noted with interest that you stated that Millennials are hypersensitive but the same can be said about the older generations as well. For example, the big too doo about the new Jaguar commercial with its flamboyant Teletubby cast that drives my generation, the Baby Boomers, mad. I agree that this commercial was poorly thought out and alienated the only people that can afford the price of a super expensive electric Jaguar, but what car or other company will take the chance in the future to add colour other that bland grey to their products and promotion if they are just going to see their core customer base desert them and become the target of mockery. I don’t know the answer. So I guess we will be stuck with a boring, grey, dull world where nothing can offend anyone.
Perhaps perceived population density from the false interconnection of modern technology strangles cultural development. Our phones are mostly showing us the same things. Web content went through the same evolution. Check the Wayback Machine. By the time the iPhone arrived, the web was being white washed or greyed out. Is tattoo culture an exception, a response, or is it just more of the same??? Are plastic or nylon clothing examples of grey choice?
🤣Dude! I think you might have found a better background for this video. That is, unless you are trying to be illustrative. White walls, white trim, no curtains, a white fur on a white wall, white IKEA furniture, etc. Just Wow.

We chose mediocrity and comfort over the transcendental. The restlessness of "something's not right", is a calling back to the transcendental.
Well said. Thanks for your comment!
I would say that boring corporations make everything bland and mass marketable, regardless of immigration.
