You don't have to live in a place to have an opinion on it. This applies not just to a country or a city, but also to a house or an apartment. Some of them can be designed and built in a way that allows us to judge them almost as a work of art.
The subreddit r/WildHomes is full of such examples. Whether it's a beautiful cottage perfectly blending into its green surroundings or a goofy mansion that looks like a toddler's fever dream, they're all here. So let's take a few virtual tours, shall we? You can keep the shoes on, too!

Why Do I Hate This Home So Much?
For so many of these homes, I couldn't stop thinking about how much effort it would take to clean them. I mean, I can barely keep my own home clean. There's a room full of boxes and...we just don't go into that room. But then I remembered - if you're rich enough to reasonably afford one of those homes, you're probably rich enough to hire staff to take care of it. That in itself is a huge turn-off for me. Basically strangers in my home, all the time?
