yep, you have to search for “little people donkey BDSM” now, using the m word would be degrading.

I know people who have struggled to get planning permission for extensions yet the planning offices approved these monstrosities

I was looking at a whole thread of these yesterday
They are terrible, white/grey exterior, grey interior. Generally have cars with the same colour scheme too.
Allergic to colour.

Strange mix of "updates" which generally look rubbish, and what appear to be complete "destruction & rebuild"?

I quite like #6 (which looks like a render as opposed to reality).

The white/grey trend is the crime against architecture of this generation. Absolutely horrific. I can see how people think it looks sleek and minimal, but it’s not, it’s just ugly. And even worse when that white paint is a few years old and the whole thing simply starts to look tired, drab and rundown. Yes, it’s a common trend in my area

Also, what’s the deal with the thick external foam insulation everyone is getting installed? I like the idea of insulation, but having a thick layer of plastic stuck on the outside of brickwork feels like a massive ventilation and damp problem waiting to happen

Also front doors. Anyone who installs anything other than a traditional style front door is certifiably mental. The only exception are bespoke, architect designed doors. Otherwise I’ve never seen a ‘contemporary’ off-the-shelf front door design which looks good.
