You’re not really in control of how your next door neighbour … decorates their building.
I spotted this contrast on a trip to Wellington recently. I like the zebra pattern. But is it ‘simpatico’ with the pop-top architecture and retrofitted balconies next door?
Or are they both cheap and ugly?

I don’t like the pop top addition to the building on the left. If you are going to add on to a building or house then it should be done to match the original structure’s era and style.
Back in the good old days when i was buying and selling homes, it used to really put me off a property if the original building had beautiful timber joinery only to find an extension had been added using awful 1970s – lack of any style – aluminium joinery.
Tacky.
“Tacky.”
Yes, Wellington is riddled with low quality office to apartment ‘conversions’ like this. The ‘developers’ display cut-price design values, in many cases, it seems to me.
