I’ve seen some really fucked up design in my life. Just real who the fuck would do this type stuff.
This house, however, is just uncanny. Everything is awkward but not truly disgusting.

A Community about large, cheaply built, suburban homes with design flaws and a lack of architectural integrity also known as “McMansions.” On Thursdays we celebrate the opposite: good suburban architectural design.
Based off the famous subreddit r/mcmansionhell, we will essentially do all the same here, as is over there. Please do your best and crosspost if you need too!
We need mods!! Please please help!
Friends at c/badrealestate!
Here are the rules:
- Posts can be about ugly houses in general
- Post appropriately and with correct tags WITHIN the title so it is easy to search. -->Tags: "Thursday Design Appreciation" or "HouseTDA", "Just Ugly", "Shitpost", "Certified McMansion™", "Discussion/Debate", and "Interior" are available.
- All post subjects must be single family homes -->Only post suburban, single family homes. No apartments or duplexes, etc. The community is focused on specifically traditional suburban architecture.
- Don't post addresses or other easily identifiable information unless it is publicly listed. -->Keep the information about the property you are posting basic and general. However, if the home is listed on a public website you are permitted to post a link to the public listing.
- Direct Images Only, no links please. -->Post correctly cropped, direct images and not links to websites. Image hosting links, such as Imgur, are an exception, but we still prefer a direct image. Zillow house page, for example, is ok if it directly links to the photos and such.
- No Spam -->No posting an excessive amount in a row on the same day or posting the same comment on several posts at once. We have seen it, we just didn't react to it. Please understand that.
- No Screenshots -->Crop your photos correctly.
- Thursday is special. To celebrate that, you can post nice houses you appreciate.

It’s like a perfect B movie, it’s so bad it’s gone a full 360 and become brilliant
It's like a Nathan Fielder production, where the mere fact of its existence amounts to its own kind of performance art piece, outside of the art of the thing itself.
Like how could such an object come to exist in the world? It stretches the mind in whole new directions.
I don't know, it doesn't look like a McMansion to me. Sure, it's big, but it looks well constructed. Just because it has odd design elements doesn't make it a McMansion. A McMansion should be frustratingly generic.
I mean, its as if someone took five different architectural styles and threw them in a Blender. Yeah, sure, some parts are interesting but at the end of the day it's still a grotesque display of scale with no cohesion
Seriously for a blog with the word in title they whiffed on this one
I kinda like it.
For real, this one is one of those "this better not awaken anything in me!" situations.
Straight-up Tony Hawkitechture.
Holy shit I did not expect the back end to drop fifty feet.
the most rational explanation for this house is that it is the magnum opus of a rogue window salesman
Is it weird that I think I would enjoy living in it?
You know, this is the first time I see one of those and think... well, this is actually fun!
3D printed homes engineered by AI are coming soon and I can't wait to see how ridiculous they get. they will be calling today the AirBnB era and laugh at how generic and marketable we were.
What a fever dream of a house. The architect must have been indulging in a lot of acid or cocaine or mushrooms or all of the above and more
The listing is as bonkers as you would expect.

They've also got a really elaborate dock/marina/enclosed fishing hole on the lake.
If I had the millions I'd buy it, torch all the furniture (except that one crazy ass bed), and redecorate.
