I love Art Deco homes and thought I'd found one, but it turns out that this home was built in 1992 in Toledo, OH. It has 4bds, 8ba, 9,500 sq ft, $1.899m.

The entrance hall looks commercial with the wide double doors, but the skylight is amazing.

I would have to do something about those doors. What's behind them? Closets? Straight ahead you can see a lovely raised dining area.

This looks like the room off the main hall- it's a guest 1/2 bath. I have never seen a sink like that.

Wow, you can really spread out in here- it's huge. The architecture of the ceilings is amazing.

Then go down the stairs to the sunken living room. Look at the fireplace.

Next, is a very cool rounded home office with built-in shelving. I would imagine that the desk would convey b/c it matches the ceiling light.

Beautiful spiral stairs going to all the floors.

Look at the open kitchen. The cabinetry had to be custom made- it's so artsy.

The primary bedroom is huge.

But look at the en-suite. It has a fireplace wall and a very large sunken tub surrounded by windows and doors to a patio.

The 2nd bedroom is also huge and has a fireplace, plus interesting architectural features.

There's a sitting area in front of a rounded window.

And, it also has a large en-suite.

This bedroom is also large enough to have a sitting area with a sectional and coffee table.

And, the 4th bedroom has a raised area. I would arrange the furniture differently.

That's an odd place to put a treadmill. Anyway, they've got a small one-person elevator. That's the kind that uses vacuum to lift and if it should malfunction, it would simply float back down to the ground floor. That's my kind of elevator.

The family room down here has an amazing fireplace.

This looks like a giant hot tub and home gym.

There's a lot of parking space and the garage is huge.

Nice deck.

Wow, the property goes way down in the back.

2.82 acres of land.

This must be the private road into the property.

How awesome is this building I found out of nowhere that has a CURVED window? A curved window.

Excuse my giant nerd. I almost fell when I saw this. I felt dizzied by its nonchalantly bold fabulousness.

According to Pinterest: "This 'Hobbit House' [in The Coswolds] was built without planning permission by a local eccentric artist, as a sheep shed."

My beautiful pink house post has been on the market for 210 days and no sale. If I had $865K, I'd buy the 1972 architecturally interesting home in Pass Christian, MS. It has 4bds, 3ba, and is perfect inside. Take another look.

Open concept living in the round. It's freshly painted white, waiting for me to paint it shades of pink. Note that the roof shape is also the ceiling.

Large window to place the dining table in front of. I would change out the dated door.

Check out the cool kitchen. Well, clearly, they painted the dated oak cabinetry (I can spot those damned oak cabinets a mile away) in a kind of bright green, but okay. The glass block island/counter is cool. And, I like the industrial light fixture. I think that I would have to repaint the cabinets black or gray, though.

It's a bright, spacious kitchen- love that oven and the open shelving above. I would have to put in a backsplash, though.

It has 2 more ovens. Note that the back of the glass block island has useful storage.

The primary bedroom has a blue feature wall, those great ceilings, and glass block.

Nice big shower en-suite. And, it has sliding doors to the deck, so you don't have to trek thru the house when you come in from the pool.

Pretty sky blue bedroom.

They painted the oak cabinets in the en-suite to match the kitchen. The other bath looks so much nicer w/black cabinets.

And, this bedroom has a sunny yellow wall with sliders to the terrace.

Beautiful rec room with stone floor and kitchenette. I would love to have this house.

This room goes right out to the pool.

The 4th bd. is down here with a guest powder room. Love that sink.

Very nice pool and patio.

.44 acre lot is a few blocks from the Gulf of Mexico.

Head in hands. And then they all happened to be self sacrificial idiots.

Infinitely delighted by the fact that Optimus automatically decided to catch whoever was falling and only look who that was afterwards. 100/10. Peak Optimus writing.

okay. this is going to be a rough post because i am still reeling from that direct. sorry about that.

but the map of lumiose city for legends: Z-A just released on the official website.

immediately, one thing struck me:

now, this may not actually be the case, but there's a possibility that this is lumiose station, where you take the TMV from lumiose to kiloude in the XY postgame.

why this building in particular? well, it happens to bear a striking resemblance to the famous gare du nord railway station in paris, which lumiose city is based on; and is even in a somewhat similar relative location in the north.

(location on map - may not be fully accurate to XY's map, but in that game, lumiose station is still on the east side of the north boulevard at least.)

(note the shared features: skylight along the ridge, arches)

with that in mind, it's interesting that chandelure is one of the pokémon featured in this visual. of course, it could easily be just a cute little visual gag (chandelier pokémon beside modern chandeliers); chandelure was part of the XY regional kalos pokédex after all.

however, chandelure is also famously associated with ingo, who is famously associated with trains, and appeared in the previous legends title, even mentioning the former briefly during a plot scene.

could this be a nod to them? no one knows.

of course, if the depicted building isn't actually lumiose station, this whole post is moot and i am but a harlequin in burgh's gym. but for now? i am going absolutely INSANE over this. possibly the most hype part of the reveals today for real.
