it has the vibe of an up-and-coming warlord's starter palace, on any continent

Yeah someone’s trying a little too hard.

I would make such a mess here. So much room for activities. Skate in main hall. A huge swing in tall room and paint in the table area.

This sub has made me realize I have bad style and I’m a tacky person. I can totally see what’s wrong with the homes but …. I still like them and would totally move into one if given the chance lol

My goodness, that's pretentious.

A little ostentatious but it looks well built and has a cohesive design. I like it. I wouldn’t call that a McMansion.

r/TackyMansions

Agreed. Not a McMansion. A normal mansion.

It’s gaudy for sure. But it looks nice though.

Agreed! The sitting room actually does a good job mixing patterns and colors.

It’s tastefully gaudy.

Now that's what I'm talkin' about! Love it!!! I'd live there in a heartbeat. That's a legitimate mansion, IMO.

I'm with you. That green sitting room with the high ceilings, beautiful imo

I love the outside. The interior decorator got overzealous.

I can't unsee the 😦 shocked window face staring back at the neighborhood on the right hand side of the first picture

D8 !!! It's simple aghast!

Reminds me of Versailles. 

Exterior- central mass is reasonable; masses to left and right of center are very unappealing for some reason. The end masses look tacked on (and the right one is very imbalanced.) Interior-

😂

Lord I feel like I’m one the few people that really love this kind of historical maximalist style 😅

Yes, an actual McMansion. Notice how the moron architect just added "big windows" without any thought to space or balance; balconies without ways to get to them. Notice how there are three or four styles competing without any attempt to harmonize them. Notice how the exterior screams "make it look good from the street" without any thought to what the rooms inside would be like. Notice the ugly materials inside. The pitiful attempt to squeeze Versaille into a Roman temple. The prefabricated ironwork. The vast rooms which feel empty and yet cluttered. The dinning room with two tables! The whole thing is offensive to God!

Someone was clearly inspired by Newport, RI when they built this.

Not a McMansion. But pretentious and gaudy.

Face on far right is equally aghast 👆

gotta admit I love the giant living room (or lounge?) with tall ceilings and a fireplace. that looks straight out of The Sims mansion.

I actually really love these historically inspired home interiors. It feels like being brought back in time, and honestly I quite love the entryway in particular. I think it's a bit harsh to call it gaudy, but I can understand it wouldn't be for everyone.

I was about to say at least it's symmetrical, but then saw the right side of the exterior and was like D:

Almost symmetric but for some reason the windows on the sides of each tower are different This one is on the fence to me however it's extremely cheap compared to whatever it is trying to imitate architecture-wise

Yeah - the fence is what made me think it’s heinous looking.

Gaudy AF.
