Let me clear up any confusion. 

Contrary to popular belief, a fireplace by the tub is not meant to create a romantic ambiance. No!  It's to light up a smoke while you're soaking!

They both ugly in their own way! This turquoise tear down was sold in 1998 for $280k. Rebuilt in 2001 as a post-modern monstrosity, it's now on the market for $1,098,000

There is something very jungle about this room (San Francisco St. Regis Hotel). Can't you just see Tarzan lounging around there in a loincloth (patterned of course)?  I am tempted to post a salacious pic of that but this is a family blog (usually). 
 
 
There ain't no reason to have such a ginorous mirror by your bed!
That's just un-Christian!
 
 
When Naples authorities raided Italian mobster Nicola Schiavone's house, they found an "Aladdin's cave of luxury tackiness." To be perfectly honest, I have seen this decor before. There is certain aesthetic that single rich male douchebags all subscribe to: Too much money to spend & too little taste to show! This house could be one of any newly minted millionaire nouveau riche dot com guys in SF. I'm just sayin'!!

This is one of those things some over indulgent fat cat builds just to say they have a helicopter pad on their roof. I'll bet you can count the # of times it's been used on one hand. This is located in the Hollywood Hills (where else?!). 

From afar, it looks like a revolving restaurant, don't it?

 
 
It's both! Looks like a really really really big  sterile hospital room. There is one kind of person who would never buy this house. Cocaine addict! 
 
 
If you are anything like me, you have fantasized about living in a sushi roll.  Our dreams have come true with this pre-fab home aptly named California Roll House!
