I mean, it’s pretty far from the best MCM I’ve ever seen, but the great room is pretty nice. The bedrooms really would have benefitted from floor to ceiling windows and the bathrooms are actively hideous. Not sure I’d want to live in Peoria either, but the price is reasonable.

it’s Thursday Design Appreciation. “On Thursdays we celebrate the opposite: good suburban architectural design.”

Understood and I apologize if I violated protocol. This came up in /all and I am both an MCM owner and enthusiast, so I felt the need to say something. I’ll still stand by my observations - we tend to be Eichler folks out here but I love everything from Frank Lloyd Wright to the Starship Enterprise. I categorically withdraw the comment about it not being a McMansion, though, since that was not its intent.
