$400,000 for this design build

Is this the only thing you get for that price?

With a very few exceptions, I would never put the words "genius" and "architect" in the same sentence.

That said, surely the future owners, contractor, and/or cabinet maker could have caught this before it reached this point.

Where does the $400k price tag come from?

MLS listing.

Damn laundry room is useless. I looked at a house in Spring and the laundry room was only big enough for a clothes basket and washer and dryer. We passed on it but it sold in 2 days.

Some of the designs and functionality of homes blows my mind. When we designed our house in Baton Rouge we made sure to have plenty of room in certain areas like the laundry room, garage, back porch, all walk in closets, walk in pantry etc.

My laundry room flows from my master closet, to master bath and master bedroom.

This is what happens when you don't have an architect.

Or when the homeowner insists that they want a wall to wall countertop with cabinets in a tiny laundry room

That didn't have anything to do with an architect and had everything to do with it being cheaper to stick two pre-made base cab together than get a custom cabinet made.



eta, being amazed and outraged about home construction and design is very in vogue with the yuppies of today. I blame HGTV.
