Jesus. I hope they used super-heavy-duty hinges on those cabinet doors that now way 25 pounds each.
I'm kind of disappointed in the oven door, now. It breaks the theme.

edit: Holy poo poo they liked rocks. Even the toilet is painted in faux rocks. They certainly committed to the theme.

That house reminds me of old Young Adult book covers. Especially if it's a coming of age, totally average and ordinary girl's adventure with magic and a strange boy who may or may not be an Elf that wants to whisk her away to Fairy Land where she could live happily ever after. Bonus points for a potential divorce sub plot that's cured by the girl somehow.

Why is the track lighting pointing at the windows?



This one is breaking my brain.

It's clear that some of the fabric is real and some is just painted on but my brain can't decide how much. Is it a fire hazard, or just a room with a completely bizarre ceiling shape? What is happening? Why is it happening?

Just imagine all of the bacteria and fungus growing in those porous surfaces. Hope no one ever spills milk or vomits before making it to the toilet, because those smells are going to be around for a long time.

Also after seeing some of those other images and the use of animal prints as well, this is a furry house isn't it?

You've got it all wrong, it's the easiest to clean! Just wheel your power washer from room to room and hose everything down.

I'm thinking it's pointing at the tapestries that typically cover the windows. I feel like the owner is not a lover of natural light.

It looks like it's an attic room and it's just a painted design on a slanted ceiling. The real drapery is only over the window and around the doorway? which you can only see part of in the shot.

Google street from 2011 shows this exterior. The most recent sale was 2015. Someone bought this house like this and kept it the same. That is... unique...

Edit: this article was written during the previous listing http://www.citypages.com/arts/check-out-this-crazy-unique-house-for-sale-in-northeast-minneapolis-7394748

It sounds like the new owner is using it as a studio/bed and breakfast.

If God had wanted us to use natural light He wouldn't have invented Nikola Tesla. :science:

I had a friend do a legit showing of that dump when it last up for sale. He said it was worse than it looked in the pictures. Aside from the decor, the general condition was apparently pretty poor.

I can see the ceiling is painted, but still all I can see is a corner of fabric coming loose and lowering itself into the fan.

I think that's actually just hanging in the foreground. If you follow the edge, you see it doesn't connect with the ceiling or fan at all. It's just in front of them.

Honestly, I like the house, if the rock-and-animal-print thing was toned down a whole lot. Like, the kitchen had just straight up stained wood cabinets, for example. I like rock as a building material, just not for every. freaking. surface. And no animal prints at all. Just complementing earth-toned paints and drapery. Basically, there was a good start here, then it just kept going straight into plaid.

Would MotorTrend's Roadkill and Dirt Every Day's creations be art cars or...

However, they did spawn the wonderful Zip Tie Drags, which has somehow magically never killed anyone yet! http://www.roadkill.com/500-photos-from-the-2017-roadkill-zip-tie-drags-in-ohio/

By the way, if you have any interest in cars at all, and you haven't seen the poo poo they do on Roadkill's youtube series, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rbbq4Vapp1Q

Hey, I followed the measurements that were on the blueprint. Yeah, I saw it was off and easily fixed when I installed it, but gently caress you that was the measurements on the blueprint.
