Yes, but without color, human figures, or popular appeal.

His wife wants to kill him.

Seems to introduce quite a bit of safety hazards too. If you cannot tell where the furniture is or where one step ends and the other step begins on a staircase, it becomes dangerous.

No HOA for sure. But curious if there is a log of Karen complaints at the local town hall or police station.

I do not like the house all in black and white like that. But an article linked in the article WTG posted shows a lot of his other work, which I do actually like, a lot.

That’s just what I was thinking, looking at the interior. I’d be bumping into furniture in that dining room.

If my kids did that they’d still be grounded today.

Awful house, probably situated down a private lane and surrounded by trees so neighbours are not affected.

My first thought was that this person is ever so slightly loco
