My MIL had a bright orange carpet and a green couch in her living room. ew... curtains - some kind of geometric on a white back ground. She also had a blue chair she loved so she covered it with a throw of some kind. She never has had good taste...
In the 70's I had bright orange shag carpet. One wall was bright orange and the other 3 walls bright green. The drapes were big flowers oranges, yellow and greens. Also had black leather furniture. Was that gaudy or what? My double front doors were also orange. Reminds me of the Brady Bunch show.
