How do you live?

How decisive were these results?

For each question we treat it as a coin flip (50/50) and ask: is the actual split far enough from a tie that we’d call it a real preference, or could it just be noise?

TL;DR: the loudest signal this week is Vibe — Bright & Airy beat Dim and Moody 25–7 (78%), a result that’s about as far from a coin flip as this poll gets. Meanwhile Utility was a literal coin flip: Minimalist edged Cozy by a single vote, 19–18.

Do minimalists also want function over form?

We never ask people to link their answers across questions, so we can’t say for certain who picked what on both — but we can bound it. If we assume the 28 people who weighed in on Décor are a subset of the 37 who weighed in on Utility, here’s how many “Minimalist and Functional” people could plausibly be hiding in that overlap.

Out of the 28 overlapping voters, the Minimalist + Functional crowd could be as few as 2 or as many as 19 people (7%–68%), with about 10 (37%) expected if the two preferences have nothing to do with each other. Not a tight bound, but it’s a start — we’d need paired responses to actually pin down whether “minimalist” and “functional” travel together.
