'Where Every Prospect Pleases and Only. Man Is Vile" Too bad the clients had so much money. A more modest scheme would have blended into the landscape. :

YUCK. While that might have seemed pretty "Space Age" back in the 1960s, today it's just darned ugly, a big clusterf*ck of architectural ideas.

Ugly on SO many levels. The proportion is all wrong, the shape doesnt work, the materials look alternately tacky/flimsy, has no sensitivity for its placement in the landscape, tacked on waterfall etc etc.
Im always intrigued when people clearly spend large amounts of time and money and end up with something so impressively unappealing.

Ugly industrial structure in a beautiful setting. That water feature is totally tacky.
