1960s homes 🤝 bold colors, geometric lines, and serious retro charm.
Today’s homes may look a little different, but great design never goes out of style. As we celebrate 70 years of NIHBA, we’re looking back at the homes and trends that defined each decade.
Would you live in this 1960s dream home? 👀
