Very technical challenge, lots of odd angles with ladders, and lots of rules on inside of house, have put on boot covers, an new ones anytime you would leave the house and come back in, I didn't work on inside, but the guys who did were not happy about all the regulations and rules They had to scrub all their equipment the morning of the job, we had be in office at like 5am, and there was bunch other things I can't remember off hand, it was 25 years ago, an luckily I didn't have do inside

Thank you for sharing your experience 😊❤❤❤

The Feng Shui house reminds me of the dorm I lived in at Cal Poly, SLO. Same raw cement walls. Depressing as heck inside and out. No wonder this place is for sale.

the trouble with a UNIQUE STYLE HOME,, is you have to be friggin rich to afford to upkeep them. Heat & cooling, plumbing need a team of engineers and very specific maintenance... If it's bought as an Airbnb then it's off to bankruptcy court and could be sitting empty for a very, very, very long time. That means you better bring lots to money to repair it

These houses are spectacular. Thank you for highlighting them. Worked with architects for 40 years. Don't build houses like this anymore unfortunately

I would love to know what was the longest an owner ever lived in each of these houses and whether they really ever felt comfortable. Also because of their unusual, untried shapes, they may have had some interesting problems.

Yep!

Wow I had never seen this Wright house.... absolutely gorgeous, that stands up even in 2023!

Those high ceilings are awesome, especially with the glass walls but heating or cooling those spaces is super expensive.

I love falling water house. Would love to live in it. Just the calming sound of a waterfall would be so peaceful.

As the mantra of real estate states, it is "Location, Location, Location!!!" when it comes to homes. Home is where the heart is, and to live in a storied, unique house, has a cachet all of its own. Wright definitely is the man of the hour (okay, day, week, month and year lol). His Fallingwater House is probably one of his most famous, but anything designed by him is one of a kind, no matter where it is. Great video, research and commentary. You are the Man, Kyle!!!! 😁💖👏

Thanks very interesting. The Lloyd Wright House is spectacular and I liked the container house, but, there's a bed that looks like you have to climb over the headboard to get into it. Unless my eyes deceive me

Alright aright, I love and like the other houses however Wright's Jones Unison house is absolutely my Favorite! When I was studying Industrial design I dove into Wright's works and His Unison style houses were my absolute favs. Some of the Unison styles are in Detroit MI, Ohio, California etc. As always great Kyle you have great vids ~ Keep Orange Crushing It!

Nobody wants the maintenance of these mansions because just your water bill is at least a thousand dollars a month

Sadly, what looks fabulous in Architectural Digest, is often unlivable, or where NO ONE wants to live. Just because you CAN, doesn't mean you SHOULD. Form should always FOLLOW FUNCTION...not the other way around.

68 MILLION?? So, purchasers are either thug Russian or Chinese, or Drug Lords. You figure, maintenance, staff, and taxes, averages 10%....rather like a yatch. $7 mill. will get most luxury housing, each, cash, YEARLY...but that's just expenses.GONE.

Wow.....the more of them that IC, the more I like my cozy little cottage. That 2nd one (the Fung Shwei) is beyond HIDEOUS. The rest are also not something I would want 2 live in either. If I could afford ANY of these I'd....spend my money on something else!

LOVE THE CONTAINER HOME ! SOME BEAUTIFUL HOMES FOR SURE ! 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸

Kyle, the word is eclectic, not electric.

Oh please I would be the first to move in to any of those homes that are just left and abandoned. Grateful being key when you don't have one yourself.

Did you mean "eclectic taste" when you were speaking about the dragon house? Cool video!

At the time of this video's release, the Starburst House had yet to be built.

No one wants a house that looks like a office building 2:37

That location and Container home would be nice for a guy like me, who can then grow and smoke/eat the sacred herb, chewing on Magic Mushrooms, whilst walking all over the place, mulling my next bunch of Trades on the Nasdaq and S&P500.....IN PRIVATE. I'd Love to see it in person.

All my life I was planning "Dream houses" in my mind.... one of them was nearly identical with the Pole House, long before I even heard of this. Some ideas are universal but often not realised. 😊

the historical architectural homes are absolute gems where everything from the bathrooms to the window placement is considered and appointed with the finest material craftmanship. the new homes are hideous modern abominations that are don't use space effectively and way overbuilt with no yard space, the people that live in them don't know art from design and pay designers the cost of most peoples homes to make the spaces livable by purchasing plants and commissioning art the home owner will never even see.

Obviously they are all amazingly beautiful but why do they have to be so huge? It’s much more of a challenge to design a really beautiful little house. We all have to get used to living in much smaller homes. The size of these houses show mostly enormous greed!

Great tour.

I wouldn't mind talking to previous owners of each home to find out why each of them decide to sell their home.

Maintenance and upkeep is astronomical on these houses. Let alone daily operation costs. That could be a big factor.

Imagine cleaning the windows in the first house

The only one I personally would live in it the Frank Lloyd Wright home in Tulsa. The rest are a little over the top for me. I saw that the rotating house in San Diego is on the market for just over $5 million.

The Wright house does look slightly like a commercial building from the outside, but the interior feels home-like and comfortable. That is typical of Wright. Most of his houses are downright cozy inside! Almost all others here lack an inviting atmosphere within. Particularly repellent IMO was the Spain Cliff House's virtually nonfunctional living room, with hardly any expanse of uninterrupted floor space. Did y'all notice the back of the TV screen set up in the upper left? BAD DESIGN!

I think I would enjoy painting all that exposed concrete at the Sun Valley Starship Mansion! That would be my choice, just so I can finish it!

The idea of a Feng Shui house besides in Animal Crossing New Horizons is great. Basing the design on the number 8️⃣ is also super interesting and fun. I wonder if there are other houses based on specific numbers. The closest I've seen in real life is at the Winchester Mystery House in California where the number 13 is referenced repeatedly. And especially in the stained glass windows.

Interesting houses but I can understand why nobody wants to live in them. They are not quite functional. They are mostly exercises in excess.

A different type of houses. Interesting to watch but they are a little much to want to live in. I can dream !

❤. Hello 👋 Kyle. Those were pretty unusual and spectacular properties. Thank you 💕

Fave was the Dragon house!! Auzzie Pole House gave me bad vertigo almost!! Also, from earthquake prone NZ--ugh, would fall down 😅😂. Id stay at the Joshua Tree one too

$15mil to build, listed for $68mil. That’s crazy.

These houses look as cozy as the state penitentiary

hi Kyle nice video never seen a house like that before hope you be safe out there 🙏🙏🙏❤️ you guys

The need for large homes for in home entertaining was out of date after covid

Wright, the master of all time. He was so far ahead of his time. His kitchens and bathrooms were actually awesome, wood and stainless steel... he was also a complicated genius. 🥰🥰🥰 OMG, the Wave Mansion!!!

Amazing 🏡 🎉, thanks for that ❤️

I think over 1/2 of these homes could cause the resident to develop clinical depression.

I’d love to see a feng shui expert cover the shipping container house. What’d they make of all those “dagger” like sharp angles!

That first house looks like an office building. I would not want a house that looks like an office building.

It would be nice to include addresses so we could see the houses in person.

The Wright house is great. It;s the most. Light filled Wright house that I’ve seen. I am sure that it came with a leaky roof.

He also designed the original jail and courthouse in Lancaster SC

Hi, thanks for these videos! :) The retro wild awful-designed houses from the 50s to the 70s were fun to watch.

11:17 2 million dollars and you have to climb over the headboard to get into bed!!

The title of this is worlds most weirdest mansions that nobody wants to live in. I would definitely pick a couple of those living though if I could afford it.

Aside from the FLW house and the Dragon Farm, all that other stuff if heinously fugly. Art my butt! The only way those things won "awards" is if the builder PAID for them.

I'l be honest with you, not all of them I would live in but, a few of them I would love to live in.... Very interesting list....

For the Belle Grove Farm mansion, I think the word you meant to use was "eclectic?"

Joshua tree mansion, it's quite nice, obviously has electricity but wondering how much water it has , some of those homes have to have water hauled in

It's not real, it's just a 3D rendering that went viral years ago. Kyle McGran just copied from other viral videos and IG post.

I'm not sure I understand the title for this video, as some of these mansions are spectacular. Even if several are definitely not to my personal taste; they surely appeal to someone, as the video itself demonstrates.

The second one looks like a movie set 3:32

The sixth one is just strange 10:06

Well, Bond villains do.

Cool !!!

The Belle Grove owners probably have “eclectic” tastes, not “electric” tastes. 😉 The context of your remarks point to the first word.

The fourth one looks like a hotel 6:34

🇧🇷🇧🇷" Nobody "wants to live in these mansions? Why? The maintenance cost?🇧🇷🇧🇷

The first one is SUPER beautiful and the best of them all. The second is AWFUL. The third has ONLY super views going for it. The fourth is a waste of concrete. The fifth is not a home, but instead a nice hotel suite for a weekend or so. The Farm House seems very nice. The Spanish Cliff house is very interesting I dont´have an opinion about the container and the wave homes...

*"... and a **_museum in New York City."_* *(aka The Guggenheim)*

I wouldn't mind living in these homes if I was rich they are beautiful 🤩

Eclectic tastes.

Fun fact, nine out of 10 of these properties are owned by Prosperity TV evangelists.

10:39 "Compromised." You meant "comprised."

Every body run looks like the monster from planet stupid

8:37 "Electric taste."You meant "ECLECTIC taste."

for the first one i dont have to see inside. I can see from the outside that it is trash and i would never live in a place where 70% of the exterior wall is clear glass.

You need a headset warning for that out tro thanks for the heart attack .

The title is misleading. Who WOULD NOT want to live in a lot of these houses? Maybe no one can AFFORD to live in them, but almost everyone would WANT to.?!?

Don't Newsom own the Wave house ?

👀

I love your videos of these amazing houses. I notice you occasionally misspeak words: "electric" taste is probably "eclectic" and so on. Maybe have someone listen to, or edit your videos to help you get all the words that you're not familiar with right. Would make more effective videos.

Who cleans the windows?

All much cheaper than Sydney Real Estate

I understand why no one wants to live in these. Not one of them feels warm and inviting. Who wants to come home to a cold, sterile home? The closest to "comfy" in this video was the "farmhouse." I enjoyed the video, don't get me wrong -- but the title says it all: No one wants to live in them. Ick.

You couldn’t pay me to live in these houses.

I would live in anyone of these houses

those home and i use that term loosely,SUCK! no, I certantly dont think they are worth the cost of them....

“Electric tastes”?! Surely you mean “eclectic”…

Great collection of homes and all deserving of recognition......except, in my opinion, the Sun Valley "starship" house. I just don't see it in the same league competing with authentic masterpieces.

Really creative, but these aren't homes people want to live in. They get investor money, a blank check to do exactly what the architect wants. There's a huge buzz and cocktail parties. Only a real impulse buy from someone that has immediate buyer's remorse. They stand vacant - and the upkeep on projects and surrounding property of this size is thousands a week.

Give me one I'll live in it.

Hello sweetheart

I would not buy any of the California homes due to possible state laws. I'd' pass on the industrial, bunker-like feel, shipping container, minimalist homes. They are all very creative, but I'm statisfied with my affordable ranch house.

Why would nobody want to live in them?

Why don’t you fix something nice like that for people who are poor and also deserve nice things?

I thought this was a total walk through 😢 im done.

The people who lived in these houses want us to eat bugs to save the environment.

I like them all except the pole house don't care for that one it's ugly

I really like those homes

The fifth one great on the outside but ugly on the inside 9:24

The last house is quiet ugly on the outside
