this reminds me how disney world is now. around 2012 they started de-theming everything, so downtown disney became disney springs, and all the stores with IP and sparkles got remodeled to look like millennial apartments. the easy thing to say is that this saves money, which is true: the new stuff they build is like the parade of homes. but they bulldozed stuff and spent all that money changing signage and they continue to do it… it’s not just to save money, they market tested and decided being luxurious to dumb people might make them more money. it’s just a trend. but that the trend swings like that (fun, no fun) in disney world of all places is like wow you people really are dumb lol. in 20 years you’re gonna change it all back when sleek quiet luxury is no longer the epitome of private/public space aesthetic. also, no one likes it.

That is really depressing... why are they turning Disney World into Seattle!
google pics of the riviera
"Disney opens new Riviera resort with a posh, artsy theme"
i can’t really illustrate to you how absolutely crazy this resort is for the price. it’s like a practical joke
