Really love the velour floor and leather couch combination. The couch is literally the same color and texture of a volleyball sized tumor a vet removed from a dog when I was interning in 8th grade.

The dog survived, btw. A deeply loved senior lab who came from a family of like five children so the parents decided to save him instead of putting him down.

I was tasked with getting him to eat and drink a little after he woke up from the anesthesia, but all he wanted was to crawl onto my lap and have me hug him and tell him that he was a brave boy. I'm not a dog person by nature, but that geriatric puppy almost converted me, dear lord. I'll never forget that dog. Nor will I forget the tumor. The vet asked me if I wanted to see what cancer looked like on the inside and I said yes and he cut the tumor in half and that was the ugliest fucking thing I had ever seen in my entire 14 years of life at the time.

The fact that someone would use it as a design choice for a couch two decade later is fucking bizarre to me, but what ever, man.

    thank you, my friend. Best part is that not a word of it is a lie. I still think of that dog regularly despite it being so long ago. It is simultaneously impressive and abominable that something as hideous and depraved as a tumor can grow inside such a pure and innocent creature. Even more impressive and abominable that some rich person would like to have a tumor-couch in their velour/velvet themed home. I shall never understand the absolute madness of ultra rich people. It has to be severe boredom. It just has to.

    Yeah that's a TON of AI generated architecture slop out there right now. I see it on my Pinterest a lot. I'm a casual architectural design nerd and 99% is unbuildable trash any architect or engineer would laugh out of the room. There are SOME that do a half decent job at illustrating really bizarre concepts like Fifth Element-esq, cathedral sized, high-rise apartments. They're so over the top it's obviously AI but its kinda an interesting thought experiment that maybe you take as inspiration to do proper design/draft. That said posts like this trying to pass off as real architecture suck. And all of it is just a waste of resources ultimately.

    Pinterest actually is ahead of the curve and auto flags AI content for you with a little box in the image/video, which I wish more sites do.

    Sale History:

    2023: £385,000

    1997: £185,000

    Good luck with the new price, I guess? Perfect for someone who's always dreamed of living in a parking lot.

    Thats like a 3% rise per year. That house lost value to inflation, pretty rare for it.

    Y'all are laughing, but they have a 1 acre griddle between the hours of 10 and 4 every summer day. That's luxury.

    That’s dismal.

    Remember, this is a climate where the primary colour palette outdoors for months on end is grey.

    The “enhancements” to the photographs isn’t helping but the base decor is utterly awful.

    Also - how did they get planning permission to have that much impermeable surface?

    According to the the website, that and a few other photos including the first are "AI Rendered photo"s. So that's a thing now? Putting up an ad with slop? What's even the point of that?

    This is horrifying, but also pretty funny because all the grass is AI rendered.

    I have friends house-hunting in England and every place they've looked at has been freshly done up, with grey carpets, grey walls and a black kitchen.

    This is from the UK and after looking at the photos of the inside it's clear this is the result of a cocaine addiction.

    What is the blue puff attached to several of the ceilings? In Image 25, for example? When everything is so drained of color, it really sticks out.

    And did someone at the agency have to photoshop every exposed light fixture to add sparkles?

    think of all the landscaping maintenance cost savings

    They tried to add some interest by staging it with colorful furniture.

    I suppose they'll save a bit of money on landscapers.

    Too bad the floor plan wasn't there, I'm sure it's awful.

    I wanna say this is what happens when your interior designer hates you, but I do like these stairs ok. Marble floors are so cold and unfriendly. Maybe the occupant was color blind.

    I’d be all over this if three things:

    1. Wasn’t in the UK
    2. in a walkable/transitable city where may of my friends live
    3. I had 8-12 friends to all go in, either ownership (being an LLC for ownership per money put in), or with rent to the owners so they can dip out whenever.

    Owning a huge home with several friends in a city is a dream of mine. And this home has a lot of “big family” areas where it could just work so easily.

    Looks like someone's computer game designed home. They never got around to building a yard for it.

    Easy landscape maintenance, pity about the drainage. Why is my neighbor complaining?

    That outdoor ground will melt in the summer. And if it doesn't melt, then your shoes will melt when walking on it.
