I'm not saying it's the finest interior ever, but I quite like it. I would rent it if it came up.
The thing with the cupboards or any furniture or fittings is, to make them like that you have to know how to make normal stuff properly.
I've had to deal with poorly designed, made and fitted things, sometimes all at once, far too many times. That stuff may not be to taste but it will operate and function properly.
I like it!
I agree, it looks nice in my opinion. It doesn't look like the house itself is crooked. It's just asymmetrical furniture, which I find fun to look at!
I don't know, some of the kitchen cupboards do not seem to do anything.
The board along the kitchen ceiling is only covering the ventilation tube, but all the other cupboards seems to work fine.
All the hinges are placed on a vertical side of the odd shapes, so they ought to function normally.
I'm torn between "this is terrible" and "this is somewhat good". I've seen much worse that's for sure.
This is the finest house in Whoville.
I know this post's title as the title of an old science fiction short story I read as a kid 35 years ago (it was already old! you be quiet) about a guy who builds his house as an unfolded tesseract net of cubes, but then there is an earthquake and the house folds itself along the fourth dimension and it becomes an actual hypercube, with the inhabitants lost and confused inside.
But I wonder now if that story's title was already a reference to something else? Or do other people know that story?
I am referencing that story and it's Wikipedia page says:
"'—And He Built a Crooked House—'"[a] is a science fiction short story by American writer Robert A. Heinlein, first published in Astounding Science Fiction in February 1941.[1] It was reprinted in the anthology Fantasia Mathematica (Clifton Fadiman, ed.) in 1958, and in the Heinlein collections The Unpleasant Profession of Jonathan Hoag in 1959 and The Best of Robert Heinlein in 1973. The story is about a mathematically inclined architect named Quintus Teal who has what he thinks is a brilliant idea to save on real estate costs by building a house shaped like the unfolded net of a tesseract. The title is paraphrased from the nursery rhyme "There Was a Crooked Man".
Oh, it's Heinlein, yeah, I guess maybe a few other people have read it...
Wait, I think I remember this story! Thank you for the memory and now to see if I can find it again!
In case you haven’t come back to the post, the story is by Robert Heinlein with the (almost) same title as the post.
It was a reference to the mathematical Orb, or at least a cube version of it.

This can be used to make basically any complex data structures and store physical objects inside.
I read and enjoyed all of those theorems.
Math IS fun!!
The Eastern Europe in this is overwhelming
It's a more 90's aesthetic where materials were available but not the finances to hire someone to do it well, so people did stuff like wallpaper by themselves instead with varying degrees of success.
People still do that, though maybe less. Men in the family are electricians, masons, plumbers, all at the same time, and with varying degrees of success.
Yes, but you can now afford better tools and materials, online tutorials and tool rentals exist, which can improve your odds a lot with a little preparation.
Edit: I live in an apartment where a construction worker used to live. It's full of dumb kludges and half jobs, or as slavs would call it, "khaltura".
No matter how good your tools and materials, a skilled enough amateur can fuck it up. You can't account for taste either. Furniture shapes aside, those bed covers and the couch are also not something I'd have in my house.
The only outrageous thing i am seeing is the material and colour choice in the bedroom
The color schemes, lack of natural light, terrible wall textures, and dated patterns are what kill this for me. The weird slanted perspective furniture actually elevates it, if anything.
Looney-Tunes lookin' furniture.
I love the idea behind it, just the execution is lacking.
Mažeikiai is where the oil refinery is situated in. Maybe it's prolonged exposure to petrochemicals.
And they all lived together in a little crooked house.
I don't know that one.
It's from a nursery rhyme. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There_Was_a_Crooked_Man
There was a crooked man, and he walked a crooked mile,
He found a crooked sixpence against a crooked stile;
He bought a crooked cat which caught a crooked mouse,
And they all lived together in a little crooked house.
What are those exfrydijg out? Almost looks like microphones.
I think they're LEDs on stiff, bent wires
Ah, I guess that makes more sense
I expect them to be tiny lights to bring that alien mushroom forest aesthetic.
The last two pics (master bedroom?) and the kitchen kinda give me anxiety with all the slanted furniture but the rest looks good to me
Is this a situation where they were planning a remodel, discussed their inability to cut straight lines, said fuck it and doubled down?
Its a Pre-React style build.
Its alllll angular
Looks like the ceilings follow the roof lines instead of being flat so they just made the furniture follow those lines
Tim Burton, is that you?
Thanks, I hate it.

There's a link to the actual listing in this thread.
Nope, just Lithuania
Terrible photos listed by estate agents/realtors that are so bad they’re funny.
