Well, I’ll give Sure Fit this, I’m sure they picked the right winner. Egad.  Although, on two notes, I think this couch would fit in perfectly at the wood paneled house; also, quite possibly this couch is so bad, it’s almost cool. I know folks who would love this couch. Sad.
And just what does the winner of this contest get? A $5000 home makeover from Kim Myles, designer and host of HGTV’s Myles of Style and Sure Fit. Not bad.
I wonder what they’ll do with the old couch?

…was this builder thinking?
Seriously now; have you ever seen such a mixed up looking house? Ever?
I haven’t. That’s Alaska for you.

It’s late. Why not post a black (and really weird) house that I know nothing about.
Check out the fish! I could never live somewhere like this. It’s so bleak. Although it’s not like you see black houses every day, so props to that I guess.

This house photo is from the blog, WhatISee. One I love the name of this blog. Very nice and simple, but catchy, no? Secondly, the blogger does see – sees quite a lot in fact, I’d pay WhatISee a visit if I were you.

I was browsing and found this cool site, Weird Cosmos. They have lots of neat (and strange) photos. They have a house section and while I’ve seen many of the house pictures before, they had some new-to-me photos too. Like the two following.
Computer house: Look close, at first I almost missed it.

That is pretty original.
And one of the least attractive homes ever…

Wow. So ugly. This one can’t even win me over with it’s lovely crookedness. It’s just so 8os. I really think that most 80s style anything should be forgotten though.
Now, you should visit Weird Cosmos they have lots of …read more

You may remember Swamplot from the famed wood paneling house. Well, they recently sent me another gem of a structure – this one loaded to the brim; with bathrooms!
Look at this, it’s unbelievable.

See all the red arrows – those are flippin’ bathrooms. There’s only four bedrooms! What could you possibly need with nine-and-a-half bathrooms – one of which has it’s own terrace?
Swamplot asks this of the perfect potential owner:
“Do you experience the urge to urinate frequently? Do you suffer from recurring bladder infections?enlarged prostate? And one more question: Do you have $8.5 million burning a hole in your (probably moist) …read more

I was pretty excited to bring the Poop House to Offbeat so imagine my delight when the lovely Heather; friend to pets everywhere sent me this wacky home. Well, technically she emailed me the home — it’s not like it’s sitting in my backyard right now. But that would be fun for the neighbors.
Reuters featured this home on Tuesday and it’s too good to be true. Sanitation activists in South Korean are marking the launch of a global toilet association with this oddball home that’s located south of Seoul.

At first it looks like a boat home but than you fly …read more

I’m not talking about a raging kegger (sorry keg fans) parties have their place but I’m talking nice sophisticated conversations about beer and wine.
Well, the Home & Dining Channel here at b5media has two new amazing blogs for those of you who jump for joy come Oktoberfest, dream of being married at a vineyard, or maybe even like a little wine with breakfast.
Our two newest blogs, Behind the Vines and Brew Ha Ha will cover all that and so much more.
I’m more of a coffee girl myself but still, in honor of the new blogs I did think I …read more
