About

The Cranny Trend refers to a series of memes that involve a user requesting others to submit ideas for an unusual indoor space, such as a small cranny or a landing, with other users replying with edits of the image that reference video games and other media. Started by the Inaccessible Foyer Landing trend in January 2024, the format repeatedly went viral throughout 2024 as users shared photographs of crannies and landings in their homes.

Origin

Inaccessible Foyer Landing

On January 16th, 2024, X[1] user @RealEstateMaxi tweeted a photo of a McMansion foyer, captioning it, "One of my least-liked design elements of suburban design is this inaccessible landing I see in foyers." He asked the viewer, "Any creative solutions for 'staging' it out there?" Over three days, the tweet received over 67.2 million views and 10,000 likes (shown below).

The tweet inspired a slew of quotes and replies in which users provided humorous answers as to what could occupy the inaccessible landing, with some users submitting photoshops editing various objects onto the landing.

For example, on January 17th, 2024, X[2] user @Magic_Max98 posted a crudely made Photoshop of men playing air hockey on the landing, captioned, "Easy solution," receiving over 3,300 likes in two days (shown below, left). On January 18th, X[3] user @M_i_t_t_s posted a Team Fortress 2 edit that received over 11,000 reposts and 97,000 likes in one day (shown below, right).
