They thought it was a good idea to remove the stucco finish to reveal brick underneath.

    I can’t figure this out. Is it fake brickwork or what? Some kind of “stage set” look?

    or they had a disagreement.

    When deliberate attempts at decay-as-decor become the trump de jour, we’re gliding down a slippery slope towards permanent mediocrity.

    Trompe l’oeil (good or bad) is anything but mediocre. I have great respect for folks who indulge their creative urges, no matter how ugly. And the above house is…well…pretty ugly. The only way to sell it is to neutralize it, vanillanize it, make it look like everybody else’s house. You know, make it mediocre.

    Hard to tell if it’s real or fake, if it’s real I’d prefer it to be all brick than stucco …
