I don't want to know what the fuck is the dark gravel thing. Plant some trees goddamit I beg you
DO SOMETHING WITH THAT SPACE, PUT A SOCCER FIELD OR SOME HORSES AT LEAST GODDAMIT
Not even a farmer, they want to be a local baron and this is their castle complete with sprawling lawns, without the class of having gardens or hedge mazes.
they are doing something with it, they're doing a big bourgeois flex class signifier
But it's ugly and sad, having a cool big garden or at least a vineyard or some llamas is cool
"Nooo you don't understand porky just NEEDS to have stuff just to have it!"
Why do people even like lawns? They're so much uglier than like a meadow or whatever was there before they flattened it
Sweet, so we specifically create a sterile buffer ecosystem around our houses so that we can minimize our interactions with nature. I wonder if billionaire prepper compounds will have something similar, like a ring of irradiated wasteland that no-one can live in.
Yeah, but like, a 4 meter perimeter of lawn around your outside walls will discourage mice & stuff just fine. Or like, 4 meters of leaves or pinestraw. Doesn't have to be grass.
These McGolf lawns have the same purpose they always did, conspicuous consumption.
It's not even consumption, most people don't like lawns, it's the evil race to the bottom known as "protecting property values". If you use your house for anything that the Market does not like, it will make you unable to sell your home and your neighbors too!
There's lots of ground cover options that aren't grass and don't get overgrown like grass. Exact choices depend on climate, but even in a cool, wet place you're likely better off with forest and moss/hosta type stuff instead of just big wavy fields of grass.
Absolute pain in the ass to mow all that, your entire day is wasted sitting on a riding lawn mower going in circles.
You never know, some people like that like driving a riding mower around. I guess it's like driving a slow gocart around a big field, maybe they pretend it's a horse that's just eating really fast, idk.
For some people, mowing their lawns is the only artisan activity they ever engage in and derive satisfaction from.
if you're gonna have a big dumbass lawn at least do it with clover or something, short grass is ugly as fuck
My stupid boomer dad cut down 3 pin oak trees with 30+ inch diameter that were around our house. Then had to go buy a bunch of huge ass custom blinds for their windows because so much light and heat where getting in. All cause he didn't want to have to deal with leaves or some stupid boomer bullshit. Like run the fucking lawnmower over the leaves and let them re-fertilize the fucking soil. Wasted $10k+ just to reduce his property value and increase the electricity bill.

this shit is confusing and HAS got to be part of some kind of deep pathology among the Bhürgeroid populace
If I had a property like that I would grow such a sick orchard. That big man made lake? So many cool irrigation trenches. So many cute benches in the shade of cute fruit and nut trees. Literally buying mystery seed bags and just throwing them around is so much better than this shit.
Lawns are just intentional desertification cmv
:monke-return:
If you REALLY wanna do a monoculture, at least plant something fancy like almonds, olives, grapes, ANYTHING INSTEAD OF THIS
I fucking love olive trees so much. In my top 3 favorite trees alongside bristlecone pine and coastal redwood.
Lawn bowls is actually a a lot more intensive than that. It's like a putting green and has some accoutrements.
fuuuuuck i'm so glad i'm not the only one who initially thought this!!!!
Ah, I love walking out of my McMansion in the morning and gazing upon the endless void of completely flat, featureless green! Really makes me feel alive.
As a C*lifornian I FUCKING HATE HOW EVERYONE CUTS DOWN THEIR TREES AAAAAAA
ITS ALWAYS MAYO FUCKS THAT DO THIS, IT'S SO FUCKING HOT AND SUNNY HOW DO YOU ASSHOLES EVEN ENJOY BEING SUNBURNED AND SHIT AAAAAAAA
ITS TOO FUCKING HOT PUT THE TREES BACK FUUUUU
I thought it was a bad photoshop, lol. The trees and the shadows look like someone set the graphics settings to low.
I would have so many trees, and a treehouse. Not for my kid, but for me. Cause i always wanted one.
WTF?! This is not a rendering???
What kind of deranged sociopaths chooses to live in a barren wasteland like that?
You can also get way prettier gravel, like, c'mon these are rich people, right? Dig up some multicolored glacial deposits so your driveway is full of agates for kids to find. Lifeless mordor looking driveway.
