Uhhh, the 1970s, when people looked at a toilet and thought: “You know what this needs? Wall-to-wall carpeting.” Somewhere between avocado green and orange fuzzy, a design crime wave hit America’s bathrooms… and nobody stopped it.
Maybe it was the disco fumes. Maybe it was a war on cold feet. But for one bizarre, glorious decade, carpeting made its way into the most moist room of the house and we all just went along with it. These weren’t just bathrooms: they were plush, padded, bacteria-trapping mystery zones. A little slice of velvety chaos between your tub and your soul.
This slideshow is a soft, squishy trip back to a time when hygiene took a backseat to harvest gold vibes. You’ll laugh. You’ll gag. You might even smell the mildew through the screen.
Let’s dive in… barefoot, of course.
