This is so over the top that it loops back around and I love it now actually

[–] ShepherdPie@midwest.social 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same. I bet you're always seeing something new since every flat surface is covered in something.

[–] MrsDoyle@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Apart from the urinal. Plain steel, no embellishment. And the sauna - plain wood, not even a carving or a ceramic tile.

I kinda love it. I don't think I'd want to live there, but it looks amazingly creative.

I agree ! There are a lot of cool things in there. I still think this is a ridiculous size for a house, but it fits the overall theme I guess.

[–] Lojcs@lemm.ee 12 points 1 year ago

This is what renaissance people thought future would be like

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 11 points 1 year ago

I like the Viking boat room - it's the one that looks the least like Sheogorath sneezed in it.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 year ago

Is that a staircase slide? They must have some happy kids

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 48 points 1 year ago

Me: 209 photos? There can't be that many details... Oh my.

I'm prepared to let them off as there are two slides and the dining table is a Viking ship.

[–] IMALlama@lemmy.world 42 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The tension between exquisite craftsmenship, gaudy, and hoarding is amazing. Every single wall is lined with things, nothing really flows together, and it's super obvious that the people who built this place, along with a lot of the furniture, were very skilled.

25 Million dollar house, cheap teal vinyl on stainless fridge....

[–] spongebue@lemmy.world 27 points 1 year ago (2 children)

"that's such a beautiful location! How bad can the inside- oh sweet baby Jesus what's going on here?"

But to be honest I think I'd rather have this than the soulless minimalistic monochromatic design we see everywhere these days

You mean one of those homes that strives so hard to make it look like nobody lives in it?

[–] spongebue@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

That's the ones.

[–] reddig33@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (3 children)

That “beautiful location” will probably be under water in a few years. Not to mention the shitty government in Florida you would have to put up with if you lived there.

[–] spongebue@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

I'm also short about $25 million so it's all a moot point anyway 🤷‍♂️

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 year ago

Honestly, if you've got enough money for this place then the government anywhere probably doesn't bother you. Hell, you may even be able to dodge a lot of their taxes. If you need access to anything, you just take a flight somewhere else, and take your yacht there. It's only the proletariat that has to deal with the consequences of authoritarian government.

If a sleeve tattoo was a house

[–] frezik@midwest.social 23 points 1 year ago

"I want to live in a themed restaurant with shitty, overpriced food, but more."

[–] AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I might not want to make the exact same design choices, but I do think the house reflects a lot of the owners' personalities, in a great way.

[–] Korval@lemmy.today 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Or at least 79 of their personalities!

[–] uservoid1@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The interior is... overwhelming... too much input

How much staff you need to keep such mansion clean?

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Imagine buying a $25 million dollar house and it has no room for ANY of your shit

[–] uservoid1@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

In all those million dollar home shows rich people just hop from one property to another without ever needing movers as those houses are all furnished already.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 1 year ago

What. the. fuck.

So bad it's soooo good.

[–] GrumpyDuckling@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago

I like how there are ceiling anchors for hanging hammocks, benches, and sex swings from.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I wish I had 25 million dollars ... This is my kind of tacky. This house was built for meeeee~

I want to eat a heroic dose of LSD and spend the day in that place.

[–] just_chill@jlai.lu 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There is a whole ass dinnig table between the stove and the sink. And the cables mess in the pheasant room ? So much space and yet a dual purpose bathroom and kitchen room ? The general arragement feels very... caravan ? vacation rental ? also some highly impractical stuff in there.
However, I am JEALOUS of the storage space. Man, what do you need all of that for ? Also, there seems to be a swan bidet, which is very fun and I genuenely dig the idea of a frog themed bathroom (maybe not this exact one). I can't bring myself to hate the giraffe chair, it's very fun. Actually, a fair amount of the decor is fine in isolation, some the carved doors look really nice ! The quantity however, it's a lot.

[–] ShepherdPie@midwest.social 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Which one is the pheasant room?

The sauna looked ok. That's about the nicest thing I have to say about that monstrosity.

[–] underscore_@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is objectively a bad sauna (cramped no natural light looks like it needs a good clean) these people are not sauna people.

This is what a nice sauna can look like if you prioritise the experience.

[–] Taalen@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Being a Finn I've seen a fair few saunas. The layout is weird, but doesn't look very bad to me. Pretty close to what you'd expect from a sauna in a house. Of course, with all the money that went into that house and the space available, they could have done a lot better. It's not fancy in the slightest, unlike the other ones you linked. But it's recognizable as a basic sauna, which is not a given for American saunas.

[–] Cyber@feddit.uk 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, that was my thoughts too.

It was possibly just as bad, but maybe all the paint dried up and flaked off...

[–] thomcat@midwest.social 6 points 1 year ago

I have no idea what I just saw.

I'd be in 107 with an icepack over my eyes..

[–] HellsBelle@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago

The sauna was nice.

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 5 points 1 year ago

It reminds me if those eye spy books kids have. Where's waldo?

[–] simple@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Everything about this looks like it's part of a failed theme park that they salvaged and are trying to sell as a home

The slide next to the main stairs gets me everytime.

[–] Doombot1@lemmy.one 5 points 1 year ago

The house doesn’t look that ba…. Oh. Oh my

[–] Croquette@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

I wouldn't mind living in the Encanto house.

[–] nightwatch_admin@feddit.nl 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Ooh it’s safe from space lasers!

Edit: YE GODS!! that interior!!
I had no idea interior design can make you slightly sea sick!

[–] synae@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This one is also pretty bad chrismarkcastle.com/gallery-1

[–] reddig33@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

$25 mil for that? 🙄

[–] gazby@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

I saw this in a Ryan George video making fun of these kinds of houses. Worth a watch if you enjoy this kind of thing I guess? 🤷

I want to be friends with the people who live there.
