Your point is…?
Assuming your point is some kind of commentary about how those houses are considered architectural gems vs. the snark directed at the houses featured on McMansion, perhaps a wider perusal of Kate’s work might help clarify things?
I honestly don’t know why the OPs don’t simply link to the relevant sections because this comes up every time they mention McMansion Hell.
For example:
TLDR - Kate’s position is there is nothing wrong with any of the individual elements of these homes - apart from the simply bad construction elements which just end up costing the owner more money in repairs and replacement.
Architecturally, she decries the unthought-out agglomeration of features from radically different architectural styles in ways that ignore well-established principles of design.
Ultimately, she just wants more work opportunities for architects.
