Snapped this photo of a new infill on 20th NW. Not sure I'd make those design choices but to each their own.

Good god is that the stucco colour? Lol. This is why we need Form and Character Guidelines for a proper DP submission. Then the Development Authority can at least point to some architectural and urban design guidelines so that this shit is unacceptable. This is 100% multi-gen family housing, there is a reason that Surrey had specific guidelines for this to deter absolute trash like this.

Kinda reminds me of some the larger single family houses in Asia. Definitely looks a little out of place here though.

LOL - this is fantastically horrible. The stucco colours, the windows, the brick, the rooflines...it's incredible!

Can’t tell if that’s “designed by owner” or “oblivious pain in the ass client from hell so you’re getting something intentionally valueless”.

That is just awful! I don’t have anything positive to say about it at all!

Is that a single family home? If so, that needs to be front and centre in any conversation about base rezoning in Calgary... 'You can have a tastefully designed 3 story walk up apartment building next to you or you can have this giant green R1 monstrosity. What worries you more?'

Permission to post this bad boy on social media so more people can get sick looking at it?

Had a round on Reddit Calgary a few weeks ago but probably just as entertaining to do another round. Maybe we can get that Tyler Hassman %#^$@ to do a home tour.

Did they hire a blind architect?

I don't think the blinds are the issue
