Pinterest has become an amazing place to find unique ideas of what one might want to obtain or accomplish in life. One of the common Pinterest boards found across the popular social network is “dream home.”
So Tech Insider hatched a brilliant idea of asking Pinterest to share what the most popular ‘home’ pins were. They asked what the most popular pictures were in each of these categories: exterior, living rooms, dining rooms, kitchens, entertainment rooms, home offices, bedrooms, bathrooms, closets, garages, attics, basements, and outdoor yards. The results were fascinating. Instead of big mansions or little cozy cabins in the woods, it seems the most popular “dream home” is a family home that balances majesty with simplicity.
The main structure of Pinterest’s trendiest home is this two story, navy blue house with white trim.

Another favored garage isn’t very big. The main appeal is probably how clean and well organized it is.

As far as Pinterest users’ outdoor preferences go, a large and open deck with a pool table and bar seems to be all the rage. Perhaps it’s because they don’t know about pub-sheds or she-sheds. :)
