This is not a terrible photo... It's intentionally strange architecture.

I think the up votes this post has are all from people who haven't noticed the name of the community 😅

Per the sidebar, terrible photos are one of several reasons for something to be “bad real estate”. Another reason is terrible property and layout. While the architecture is interesting, it looks awful to live in to me.

I think I have Reddit PTSD. I saw you replied and thought “oh god, they’re going to say something rude/hateful/etc.”

Nope, it’s a polite, human response. Thanks! Have a good one!

I agree. In my opinion it fits "weird layout", second bulletpoint in the sidebar.

In German we have a word for this sort of things „Kopfkino“ - literally translated it’s head movie. It means if you think it’s funny, a good idea, a strong concept but in real life it’s just ridiculously stupid. Too much thinking behind it. You are stuck in your minds movie.

This is how you take a 1/16th acre property and turn it into a 1/4 acre property.

Fuck floorspace, all my homies hate floorspace

I would say, have fun with the flat roof that's going to be prone to leaking but if you can afford to build that stupid thing you're not going to be worried about that.

It's pretty impressive, I'm interested in how the low levels are layed out.

[–] abouttocomealive@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

It's divided into apartments. The pictures in the listing are from the apartment for sale on the first floor. The ground floor seems to be just entrance and staircase.

Wonder how this thing holds up against strong winds

[–] Maestro@kbin.social 9 points 9 months ago

Reading the description it's a fully steel framed building. It'll hold up just fine.

I would love this for a tree house or something. Something where practicality isn't needed

My favourite part is how there's so many walls and objects clipping into each other, the bed clipping into the slanted wall is great.

The Feng shui in that bedroom is awful awful awful

How do you get in? I don't see a door anywhere lol

[–] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'm assuming that the building is asymmetrical and appears more conventional from the other side, as it would seem to need to to have proper support, so probably on that side

Hey, I played on this Teardown map!
