That must be somewhere very hot with no winter / storm season. If this existed where I live then certain times of the year you would be surfing more than channels from your living room sofa.

This is what I would want to live in if I was a famous actress in the past

I love how even the lighting is carefully designed to play with the architecture!

Ahhh, there's nothing quite like getting up in the morning, stepping outside and involuntarily going for a swim.

Locally we call this sort of thing a McMansion. A fancy house built in a tract (or small plot of land) that is trying to be a rich people home but they didn't quite have the money for a rich people home. (Though I'm sure this place cost a lot more than my place)

I see me in this. Everything at right angles, plants evenly spaced and so on. This is not my favorite house in this thread but it's a good example of why I shouldn't be the one designing them.

This one is probably quite nice from the inside. Appears to be right on beach so that rooftop patio likely has a wonderful view. The open part of the second floor appears to have a track so I'm guessing it has a large window/slider wall that closes in the bad weather - and still gives a wonderful view to sit and have a cup of tea. Actually, I'm realizing the bottom opens/closes as well. Must get some wonderful breezes in warm weather with everything opened up.

I feel like I should be looking for a hidden morse code message in the placement of those shrubs.

I'm going to slip on those steps with my wet feet from the pool on the way to those loungers and bust my a*s!!

This looks like a 'let's use up all the odd bits of stuff we have leftover' project.

It's like they made a house specifically designed for the ice water bucket prank. "PSSST! Have Grandma go sit in the 'special' chair".

It looks like a great holiday home, and you cant really see the inside from afar

It's wonderfully symmetrical! I think the yard would look prettier if all of the bushes were replaced with flowers. I like flowers.

they appear to be growing pine trees on their patio. And they are overcrowded even if they were not in a patio planter box.

Embrace the rain? Those ferns suggest a fair bit of shade / dampness. I have those in my woods. Patio under a permanent roof suggests sitting there watching rain come down.

Why would you leave a big gap in the cement slabs right at the center of where your sliding panels open up to?

I was wrong before. THIS is the ugliest building I've ever seen. Surely there won't be one worse than this.
