I don't like the decor, but the building itself is really quirky!

Also, the video tour is quite something and should definitely be viewed with sound on.

@QuestionableMouse

It looks like it's been designed to make it easy to clean up the blood once you've finished your killing spree.

And all that stainless steel is giving me flashbacks of being at work and Ajaxing everything.

This was my first thought. Wipe-clean surfaces, everywhere.

Gawd it looks like an operating theatre in space - horrible

Pet8 · 06/04/2021 20:50

It reminds me of an episode of Inside no. 9. "The Quiet night in" I think it's called. I absolutely love it. Slapstick comedy.

I do like it but it would be perfect if you attacked the place with a pack of 3 year olds and some rainbow coloured paint and let them run wild (apart from the kitchen which needs blowing up and replacing with one that can actually be used rather than just polished).

Its like the tv room in the original Charlie and the Chocolate factory film.

It is giving me prison vibes. A luxury prison, perhaps, but nonetheless. Soulless.

Bythemillpond · 06/04/2021 20:51

The bathrooms made me think of prison toilets.

WhiskyIrnBru · 06/04/2021 20:51

It would be like living in the Janet and Michael Jackson Scream music video!

ArabellaScott · 06/04/2021 20:51

A prison in outer space, just you and some dead-eyed guitar player and all the wipe-clean surfaces ...

Love the episode not the house! Confused

Or it needs a jungle of houseplants.

littlepattilou · 06/04/2021 20:53

OMG, it's like being in an episode of Wanda Vision Shock

The decor is soooo weird! Not for me at all. Too much silver/grey/white.

Tribblers · 06/04/2021 20:54

It must be self-designed. I can't believe an actual architect had a hand in it.

IsSpringSprangedYet · 06/04/2021 20:55

Could someone please watch the video and at 2.51, please tell me what is in the mirror...looks like someone/thing is peeping around the corner! Shock

It's hard to imagine what it would look like if you took all the stainless steel and silver out and furnished it normally with colour and wooden details... might be nice? Or not? Confused I have to wipe our fridge everyday because of fingerprints... I'd go mad!!

Alcemeg · 06/04/2021 20:57

It gives me the creeps. It looks like the kind of place that has been designed for disposing of bodies.

clareykb · 06/04/2021 20:58

I mean you could by this in the same suburb (Low Fell is a niceish suburb of Gateshead it is a bit more expensive than neighbouring areas) have a garden, parking and fewer murderous nightmares Oh and 125k Change ..www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/88075171?utm_campaign=property-details&utm_content=buying&utm_medium=sharing&utm_source=copytoclipboard

sonjadog · 06/04/2021 21:00

I wonder why there are no windows? Is it that the original building didn't have any and they had to keep the facade, or did they actually want no natural light inside??

Looks like a claustrophobic death-trap to me. Imagine if there was a fire in there...

mrwalkensir · 06/04/2021 21:01

So it's all white to try and cover up that most of the rooms are fully internal with no natural light? The police will presumably be keeping it on their radar in the future...

ImAlrightThanx · 06/04/2021 21:03

That's too sterile and monotone for me.
They really aren't fans of colour, are they?

MrsArchchancellorRidcully · 06/04/2021 21:06

Stainless steel loos?! Urggh. No thanks.

Titsywoo · 06/04/2021 21:09

Urgh it's awful - it just looks so cold! The metal floors The whole place is like a mortuary.

What's the weird room with the podium style stairs about?

Mumwithapub · 06/04/2021 21:09

Would be great to film a sci-fi there.

Hydrate · 06/04/2021 21:09

Not a single thing about that place appeals to me.

LondonMiss · 06/04/2021 21:12

Oh love it! Those stairs
