It should actually be an offence for someone to do this. That change from garden to hard standing will cause issues with any drains and probably cause flooding.

WTFF. That's terrible
That's an architect's house right there. Guaranteed. Stark feel, contrasting colors, even geometric lines, minimal but very intentional organic elements ("plants" in the windows - probably fake). I'm in the business and have worked on architect's houses. They are generally split 80/20 between ridiculous modern art and warm, inviting, immensely functional spaces. There is no in between.
Maybe they plan to park cars there.
Or maybe they just don't like cutting the grass. Can't blame them. I hate having to cut the grass all the time.
There are alternatives to having a lawn. The great people over at nolawns@slrpnk.net can help you.
Personally, I've replaced large areas with native plants. They take care of themselves.
I found a real estate listing for the house (yes, you could own this beauty), but I don't know if posting it would count as doxxing per community rules, so I won't. In any case, this is not a business.
They want £300k+. Based on what was written, the whole idea was minimal maintenance and maximum room for parking. The back yard/back "garden" is the same as the front: just a bunch of tile. The interior is less offensive, but just what you'd expect: very modern, lots of black and white and bold shapes.
Kind of sounds like it is intended to be used as an Airbnb/rental property.

Haha what the fuck, that looks absolutely terrible. How did they ever think this was a good idea?
It’s not the house for me, it’s the garden…
It looks ssooo and now!! I really want to know why.
The only thing that makes sense in my mind is, maybe the owner's permanently on wheels and needs a flat, hard surface for their mobility device?
Looks like it ruined the whole area by the looks of it.
What he did to the yard is way worse. I mean, why? Does he like to live in a open air sauna?
Er... What were they going for?
Bleak urban funeral home ?
There house, who gives a fuck what theu do with it, remove all the grass, or let it grow to fuck. Dont be a nosy cunt.
Actually, I like the updates, however, some potted plans would help drive the updates home!
