SERIOUSLY UN COOL - Colours done badly

Creative Interiors - Every project on this website seemed tacky, shiny and had this plastic look about it.  None of the materials felt natural, is this perhaps because there was a lot of colour in the schemes?  Or was it the wrong choice, or combination of colours?  Or was it the finish of the colours that didn't appeal to me.  All the same, I didn't like it.

I think perhaps this means that I am leaning towards a like for natural materials, or what is at least perceived to be natural. Timber, slate, are all materials that have come straight from mother nature, along with all its imperfections (knots in wood, fungi, cracks, weathering). I like it, I like it a lot.
