How TF did they get planning permission for this:

Looks better than most new builds.
I like that.
Looks a bit Minecrafty for me.
Where's the other 10 of 11?

Where's the guttering?
Internal parapet, I reckon.
That's cool, I really like that...
Like!
It looks lovely inside.
I don't get why we still predominantly base new builds on a several century ideal of what a house looks like. Why do new estates always look the same. Commercial architecture uses new materials and far more varied designs. Surely new residential estates where there's no old builds for context could be made to be a bit more interesting.
cost of buying and selling. all houses look the same because it the quickest , easiest way to get them built at the lowest cost in the fastest time.
to get that house passed , someone has slipped an envelope under the table.

It's "safe," isn't it. See also the silver car thread.
Urgh. Feel bad for the neighbours.
Well, it is quite symmetrical. Seems to have been decorated by a colour-blind person though.
I've seen a lot, lot worse....
That looks pretty good I think.
Bloody awful in every imaginable way 🙂
It looks lovely inside.
I don't get how it's so nice inside and so gopping outside.
Horrible looking thing - and tiny windows
I've seen a lot, lot worse....
Agreed. I'm failing to have a strong opinion on its looks.
The rest of the street is bland as ****.
Corten done well by the looks of it and passivhaus standard - what's not to like?
Hideous. Inside looks nice enough though.
OP,
That looks very nice.
While the rest are dated and hideous.
Good for the council to allow that.
Imaginative, but the master bed looks a bit small.
They said "constructed from red bricks", they just didn't say how big the bricks were
For me the house is nice but the staircase could be relocated differently to the side (inside the house) rather than right in the middle of the house. Also I bet the designer of the house does not know how to cook. 🙂
Love it, absolutely minimum amount of external maintenance outside, Corten steel is wonderful stuff, the rear is far tidier than most of the neighbours, and I really like the interior's simplicity.
Of course, furnishings and decor are totally personal, and very easy to change.
I'm sure some complaints have been made by people who actually like stone cladding...
Like it!
£320 odd k for that...??!! Bargain..
Even if it was made of chips, it would be £480k+ down here (a stones throw from the southern most beaches)
I really like the inside..minimalist, clean, nice open spaces.
Not too keen on the front, but it's a bit like my face - I'm the one that sees it the least...
DrP

Indeed.
So much architecture is just pure mediocrity as its best.
I wonder if living in a giant Faraday Cage makes your wifi signal better or worse..?
Come on people, it's challenging the social norms and explores the relationship between Jungian archetypes and UFO sightings. The houses influences as are diverse as Nietzsche and Francis Bacon, new variations are manufactured from both simple and complex narratives. The vision soon becomes finessed into a cacophony of lust, leaving only a sense of decadence and the dawn of a new order.
As shifting derivatives become distorted through emergent and diverse practice, the viewer is left with a hymn to the possibilities of our era.
Jeez man, you'z lot are heathens.
I think it looks pretty good. Wish there were more properties like this around. Interior and garden layout looks like it would give a better lifestyle than many older houses. Nice high ceilings and lots of light. Bet it's pretty low maintenance and check out the energy efficiency ratings too.
Many of the other houses on the street look like they've lost a lot of their charm. Boxy UPVC windows, cheap roof tiles, render, untidy extensions, front garden turned into a parking space etc. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder...
Nothing wrong with that.
From an industrial designers point of view standard brick house design appears to be so inefficient and flawed
nice house really but the area is cr4ppy
The vision soon becomes finessed into a cacophony of lust
You had me nodding in agreement until I read that. Lust is not the emotion that came to mind.
I can't stand that layout...ONE public area, including the cooking area??? No chance. Looks like an office, not a home.
Like. 🙂
Exterior different but works for me.
Inside doesn't, too open plan for me, I like rooms. Kitchen area is too small, only enough worktop to open a microwave meal and mix a mai tai. The tallness of the lounge area sacrifices upstairs floor space. And someone has spilled black paint on the lounge carpet.
Hideous. Imagine a whole row of houses like that. All massive ugly bricks and tiny windows. Grim.
Actually, imagine that, then paint it a dull shade of grey and you've got the new housing they've built in my town, where they used to be a nice bit of heathland.
Front looks to be North facing hence the small windows - it's not a great area but I do like that it got past planning and someone was brave enough to build it. Featuring on GD soon?
Don't ever lean against the front wall though.
Looks a bit Minecrafty for me.
That was my first thought too 🙂
That's lovely, best looking property in the street. shame it's in a grim area though.
Would love to own a property like that as long as it was energy efficient and warm in winter.
This is far nicer, bit more wedge though
