Interior design evolves a bit more slowly than hairdos & fashion. But as you see here, a LOT can change from as time passes decade to decade. House Beautiful details the sleek ’40s, the eclectic, groovy ’70s, the pastels (Pastels?) of the ’80s. So, what was hot when you came into this world? I edited to started with 1940, 1950, 1960 and then 1970 through 1990 every single year (I’m assuming you aren’t younger than 25?) But if you are younger or older than the years listed here, there’s every year from 1929 on House Beautiful‘s website here. Since it’s Father’s Day, look up your Dad’s birth year too, just for fun.
