They seem to have a beautiful view of the Pacific from the living room window. Nice!

looks like crap, every boom vomits these types of homes out.

(which I often pass on the way to work.) Though to be fair, there's a very modern house a couple blocks from me, surrounded by capes and colonials, and it isn't terrible.

Has anyone else noticed that weird-looking, tall skinny modern house going up on Washington Blvd just north of Tallula? I really dislike that one.

Agree, this one and the one on Wash. Blvd. are somewhat interesting but not in the right place(s) for their design IMO.

the design is cool. It just seems out of place with the surroundings.

I love it. Creativity has to start somewhere. I appreciate the contrast.

I love it. NoVA stands out for having the worst architectural style and quality of any major (or minor) metropolitan area in which I have lived or visited in the US. On a per-dollar basis, it is unforgivable. I'm delighted to finally see something with some chops - wish I were in the market!

It doesn't fit in very well with the other homes, so the goal is to shame the builder and any potential buyer.

Actually, yes. WTF were they thinking?

Don't be a putz. You haven't gotten around much, then.

Ugh there's a similar house on Washington Blvd a few blocks east of EFC Metro.

Hideous and completely out of character in a neighborhood of older colonials and capes.

I always wonder if the people who buy them feel a bit silly.

If posts here are any evidence, the buyers would assume everyone else is just "jealous" and "not very successful."

Where is the loading dock

The developer isn't an architect, so no formal training which is why the proportions are a bit funky, and contemporary design is hard to do. And the window mullions look strange. I hope the rendering is just an early concept. Too bad the old house will have to go.
