I have to admit out of all mansions I’ve seen, at least she has her own style. Most owners basically leave their mansions white, bland, no color matching.
yeah at least she like...picked stuff herself. instead of instructing some poor personal assistant to buy every white and grey piece of furniture in a 30 mile radius.
Yeah I agree. I hate how nowadays there is an obsession with the ultra "minimalist" pastel aesthetic with abstract art sculptures. I don't get it. Definitely not something I'd want in a home. Ashley's is more homey to me.
@@seydabomb9859 Yeah, I thought it looked cozy. Like it was actually meant to be lived in lmao. I don't share her taste in aesthetics in every room, but noting jumped out at me as ultra pretentious or useless.
Bruh if I lived in a place like this I would absolutely forget about most of the shit, It'd be 10 years down the road and someone will be like "Bro there a kitchen behind this wall" and I'd be like no fucking way
This looks like the houses I build for my sims when they have more money than they know what to do with. And then I get annoyed because they pee themselves before the make it to the toilet because the house is so big and everything takes ages.
I love building massive mega mansions in the sims, but you need to pack them full of bathrooms. Also, ur sims are never going to be able to get to school or work on time lmao
As someone who lives in a desert, I can assure you, the dust storms will be unforgivable in that home. My friend left a backdoor cracked when one blew through and the house looked like no one lived there for 20 years, the amount of dust was choking me. Great idea for a home in the desert to not have walls. Prime example of an architect that doesn't live in the area.
@@bajabl He's literally talking about accidentally leaving a door cracked open and the dust storms flooding the house. This is a house made of open windows. Even if they can be shut, you only have to forget to hit the button once or wait a bit too long, and your house is a dustbowl.
@@bajabl One bad crack in all of those window seals and you might be screwed like OP's friend. The rooftop patios and pools are gonna be an expensive clean too.
@@bajabl I did not, and can assure you that I have never, nor ever will be near one of these homes. lol The risk, as others have stated, is leaving a cracked window, or having one damaged without knowing. It just takes one and half that home is caked in dust. Now I don't think the owner would care. Anyone who has that much money will just hire a cleaner, but that's a whole other issue. Some people have too much money and would actually buy a fully wooden home near a volcano just because they can't figure out how to spend it all.
@@noisynixx Honestly that would go kinda hard. Record a drone album with field recordings from the volcano and house you’ve got a free RYM classic on your hands
As someone who lives in South Carolina, seeing all of that standing water in the cactus mansion is mortifying. All I can think of is mosquitoes, mosquitoes, mosquitoes, MOSQUITOES, MOSQUITOES, MOSQUITOES!!!!
Fun fact: While VOCs are real a lot of them are also used in the house. So buying a non-toxic crib is usually worthless unless you can also ensure your house also lacks those compounds which for 99% of people they can't do.
Huge fan of the Snipers nest 9000 cacti mansion, by only issue i have with it is that it looks more like a COD map than a home. but maybe thats just me lmao
The $25M mansion is not even that bad, its just the fact that there’s like no doors and everything is open. You get one dust storm or one monsoon and your whole house interior is absolutely ruined. Not to mention this guy is using way more water than he should with massive lawns, three pools, and infinite plants in a place suffering with drought
Well, no doors, so that means no air conditioning, and I feel like it would get so hot in the summer. All sorts of animals could get in, and not to mention the amount of insects that would swarm you. It would be absolutely awful.
Seriously why the hell do they always have to make these houses as psychotically complex as they possibly can I don’t want to solve a maze to go to the bathroom
Yeah, this is the problem I have with these "modern architecture" stuff and all of this overthink that often goes into home decoration and stuff. Even before that awful mansion showed up, these uncomfortable chairs in the Ashley's house segment, they're so overthought and unnecessarily complicated, which made them almost useless since they're so uncomfortable.
Huge mansion full of wasps, dust, stones, cati/pins, flies and stuff because the designer/architect thought having an open concept in 100+ degrees was a good idea
imagine sleeping in the open air and you wake up with ants, spiders, and mosquitoes crawling all over you. You try to run but end up slamming into a cactus
If I'm not mistaken, a lot of those cacti are San Pedro cacti, and they're the best source of mescaline short of peyote (and totally legal to grow and own so long as you're not clearly extracting or consuming them, wink wink.) So the cactus house is actually pretty valuable in that sense lol. At least if you live there you know at any moment you're never more than a couple hours from full-blown 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenethylamine bliss.
My favorite part of that “pool” is when the needles fall off of the cactus into the water and you get to enjoy them being stabbed into the bottom of your palms and feet as you crawl like a crab around the shallow failure.
@@jebaited9612 actually there is a vacuum pool cleaners use to vaccuum the floor while the pool is still full. All pools tend to get some form of sediment settled on the bottom either bc wind blows stuff into the pool and it settles down at the bottom, or the ppl who own it go barefoot, get their feet dirty and wash it off by going in the pool. Having to drain and clean a pool every single time it's a little dirty would be wasting water, most of the time it's only done if the pool has not been cleaned in a loooong time
As a Californian, I give her credit. We're in a drought so she chose to decorate with desert plants and rocks instead of a huge water guzzling grass lawn with flowers. My neighbor is environmentally conscious and does the same. The state of California also gives you a tax refund for not having a grass lawn.
Having a grill under a roof in a house with no walls or ventilation, other than the wind, is gonna fill the house with smoke and the scent of meat or fish and is gonna attract so many wild animals in the desert. Also, all those stagnant pools of water are gonna cause so many bugs to swarm.
My favorite house tour was Dakota Johnson; For those who don't know, I guess her house had been professionally staged for the house tour but she hadn't seen the staging, and when she went to give the tour of the kitchen there were two huge bowls full of limes on the counter next to the sink. She got so thrown off by them being there that she hyperfixated on them and went off about how much she loved limes and how great limes were. Then she started showing off some other stuff that was probably just staged for the tour. She later revealed in an interview that she's actually mildly allergic to limes.
With the toxic cribs thing, basically all furniture materials used by major producers give off some type of particulate. Usually not an issue because at least 90% of people are not babies and have more developed immune and respiratory systems that fight against them. It’s not even really an issue for most babies, but some children with pre-existing conditions do need non toxic cribs
True but for example phtalates are endocrine disruptors and in many cases enter the body through skin or pass the immune system check. And they are dangerous for everyone because exposure can cause cancer and fertility issues. I think the damage depends on the amount but since you oeple are exposed to those daily, it's good to eliminate the sources you know of and have control over.
@@saal0 man I don't want toxic gases coming off a baby crib in any quantities,I feel like that should be an important thing for a parent to put their foot down on
9:35 Charlie is right, especially in the 'European Ghost Town's, the IS more to it! If you buy a house in italy in one of those ghost town's, where there are only old people and you have to drive to the next biggest city to get everything, you have in the buying contract a saying that you HAVE to fix the house to modern standarts in ONE YEAR! I know this becouse i have seen a contract for ine house from a friend of mine, her parent's have ton's of money so she got her home fices in no time.
Never mind the wildlife, what about people getting in? Even if you can close down everything in that Vegas mansion, the place is so massive that there's got to be plenty of blindspots to sneak in even if people are at home and have just left shit open. No way you can have eyes on everywhere in a property that looks like its built to accommodate 100 guests. Also, severe lack of doors? Don't mind me I'm just going for a bath in my hallway tub
As someone who has lived in Las Vegas, this entire house would turn into a $25 million dollar sauna, because all of that glass and open open areas will do nothing to help you in 110 degree heat.
@@bajabl Sure, but the walls are mostly glass, non-insulated, and I’ve never seen a closing wall with a perfect seal. It would help, but at 110+ it’s not going to be enough to keep it cool by a long shot.
I'm so glad I grew up poor and became comfortable with not obsessing over numbers and bling while still recognizing the importance of working towards being a responsible adult. This is literally something I would create in SIMS after discovering the money cheat code for the first time.
Same here. Idk if it's just bc I grew up (partly) in a 2 bed, 1 bath apartment, but I can't imagine living in giant houses like these. I feel like they're so big and open that someone could just hide out and live there with you and you wouldn't even realize. Maybe I'm paranoid, but I'd take a small and secure studio any day.
Re: cribs. Firstly you have off gassing, so whatever chemicals were trapped in the packaging being released when you assemble the crib. Then you have the fact that a teething baby is likely to chew on their crib, exposing them to whatever chemicals were used in processing and finishing the wood. Just FYI. 😊
true. it’s a little basic but at least she designed it herself. kris jenner has a yoshitomo nara painting and I’m still annoyed bc I know she didn’t pick it out and doesn’t know who that is.
@@Zizpy yeah like a modern Villa, the stone walkway that leads into the "pool" reminds me of the central walkway in that map that you can rappel into and look down from on the second floor
It's interesting how unappealing mansions can be. Like I'd rather live in a moderately nice duplex than 99% of mansions...let alone a decent house with some land.
also, mansions can literally take a chunk of your money. Imagine the maintenance, insurance, water and electricity costs. They're financially impractical in the long run and I absolutely have no idea why a lot of people want to live in them
@@legoslash4799 Honestly, I feel like most of them are barely actually lived in. They buy them because they literally have more money than they know what to do with. It's not just an idiom for them, it's literal. They are searching for ways to spend absurd amounts of money (even though they could just donate it to help fund homeless shelters instead of buying absurd houses that they only stay in 2-6 weeks out of the year that only contribute to the homelessness problem in America) because people at their income level could spend over a thousand dollars every day and still have a sizeable inheritance for their kids when they die.
I live in AZ too and I live on the city limits so desert everywhere around and it's full of those jumping cholla cacti. Luckily I haven't seen any flying around in dust devils but if I ever see one go airborne, I'm hauling ass to the first cover I see.
Also desert dweller. Can you imagine living somewhere with that much stone that is in direct sunlight. You'd get 3rd degree burns on your feet if you take your shoes off.
@@uhmmmFU Jesus, hadn't even thought of that. Even where I live, the pavement can get hot enough to burn pets' feet in the summer - and I live in Canada.
I seriously wonder what kind of sadistic psycopath would think surrounding an entire mansion with cactus as if you are setting up a natural trap house would be good. Like,why even cactus in the first place?
As someone from Vegas, here are my points; 1. It's literally over 100 degrees Fahrenheit most of the year, having so much natural lighting means your house will be unbearably hot, even with AC blasting. 2. Yes, there is wind, especially at higher elevations. What'll be worse, though, is monsoon season and dust storms. 3. Since we've been in a drought for decades, there's a mandatory watering schedule and some restrictions on how much you're supposed to use. It's too expensive for some people to water their lawns, so desert landscaping (i.e., cacti, desert shrubs, rocks, etc) is super popular. Not sure why they did that with the cacti but then included THREE WATER FEATURES, but I guess that explains what all the money went to.
I don't envy the year-round heat or heavy water restrictions, but I wish desert landscaping worked where I live. I love how big cacti can get in their natural environments.
@@astrangeodor Quebec... with winter windchill, -30 Celsius/-22 Fahrenheit isn't uncommon. Happen to have family in Canada's one semi-arid desert region, but it's at the other end of the country.
Also the water will be a breeding ground for mosquitoes. Wildlife has a high chance at getting in (especially since it’s near/in the mountains area) and every other year we get those swarms of locusts that cake everything.. clearly this house was made by someone who doesn’t/never lived in Las Vegas cause this house is not at all ideal for our environment.. the only thing that makes sense is the cactus because by the time the summer is over that’s the only thing that would have survived in and on the house
Charlie complains about some of these houses being "isolated" and "completely cut off from society". How is that a bad thing? I fucking HATE people. I would love a place with no-one around.
Charlie isnt catching that its free, because you have to move it. This actually happens a lot... Someone wants the lot but doesnt want the house. So instead of demolishing a perfectly good house, especially an old historic one like this one, they try and get someone to move it. But to move a mansion cost exactly what they said it would, or more... if you can even find someone to do it. Then you have to have somewhere to move it to that will allow you to place it. Yet again, thats a feat better spoken about than actually obtained. Now, if it was "The house is free, you don thave to move it but you dont own the land except for a tiny easement strip around the outside... Someone would snatch that shit up in a heartbeat. But compounding the fact that you have to find someone to move it to a lot you already own that doesnt have any ordinances involving house relocations (a LOT of places are "new development only") and THEN the cost of inspecting and repairing anything that broke in the move... THEN remodeling it to make it updated as you would want to do. Its... its just not worth it.
I've lived in Las Vegas for most of my life and I can't imagine who would want to have those giant windows open in the summer when it's 110+ degrees. He says that you'd get a nice breeze but it's like standing in an oven when it's windy. I'd say the outdoor areas will be essentially unusable for at least four months of the year unless there's some sort of covering.
Imagine having so much money that every piece of furniture has to have deep lore I bought my end table because there was a good deal at a local yard sale and it only had minimum scratches. 😐
you misunderstand! clearly the table you bought was the eldritch colossus eternal table of the highest order that is several milennias old! surely you know the scratches that adorned the ancient oakwood surface was the slam marks of beer kegs and the carvings from crusader's noble broadswords from many celebrations of victory aging from many eras bygone? relish your purchase! For now you may dine among seats of kings and fair maidens of yore that once called that table their hearth.
Here is my table’s history,Long ago my table was just some atom in the universe,but when earth was created or something it turned into some random ass resources,and then someone made it into a table.
I like how obvious it is that the designers of some of these houses run out of ideas halfway through and completely asspull the rest. That 25 mil desert house literally had a 10 shower/tub to 4 bedroom ratio because what the hell else are you going to fit into those giant spaces of gravel? None of this makes logical sense lol
@@someguy1688 How is this even intended? like are you going to sit outside naked in your bath tub? Are you going to wear swimwear while taking a bath? it makes 0 sense.
Just imagine actually living in the cacti mansion. You’d feel so uncomfortable and dirty 24/7, surrounded by tiny needled plants in every goddamn room that will eventually attract thousands of insects and snakes to bite you in your sleep. The novelty will wear off quick when you get sore from constantly walking on hard stones, which will no doubt retain the dust and soil from the wind blowing through the huge amount of open space the place has. Like, as soon as you step out of your bath your feet will get filthy from that shit. Any sandstorm that passes through will no doubt be a nightmare to clean, just think about how much it would cost to hire professional cleaners for that monstrosity! Honestly I wouldn’t live there even if it was given to me, I’ll stick to my cozy little shoebox home thanks.
And i have alot of anxiety regarding stalkers and trespassing, which living in this house would basically ask for people like this,,, all the windows and crawl spaces is a NO.
Actually now that I think about it, how do those mansions prevent insects and animals from coming inside? Even 1 damn wasp is annoying as hell, those open spaces are always going to have flying and crawling insects inside.
@@brandon9172 Some insects aren't bad, but in the desert you can have things like scorpions, gila monsters, wasps, tarantulas, not to mention black widows. All of which are dangerous and will seek shelter and shade in the sun.
If I had $25mil to spend on a home I’d just get a normal looking one story house and then have a semi-luxurious doomsday bunker underneath that’s basically the same as the actual house above.
@@shrimblo2932 Yeah, same here. I would love to have a bunker under my house, y'know, like a batcave. There would be secret entrance, and inside you would find a high end gaming station, a movie theater, an arcade room. God, that would be so sick.
found out recently that me and charlie went to the same college and I can confirm that the shitty building with the minarets isn't being haunted by anything besides business majors and termites
8:56 That really hurt to hear that no one was willing to offer up the paltry amount of $10 to buy Aubrey Lewis' mansion to preserve it, but they were more than happy to spring the funds to demolish it.
"At a store called Garde that I shop at a lot" I'm not even two minutes in and already raging that someone could shop at a store that charges just shy of $5k for such a fugly chair. And most of the stuff under the same category on their website is between 4k and 10k. Imagine shopping for seating and spending 6k in a single piece. AND I'M NOT EVEN 2 MINUTES INTO THE VIDEO Next chair at ~2:10 from JF Chen: website requires inquiry for pricing, so that's not a good sign. Online listings for a SIMILAR chaise because hers isnt on the site so I can't find the name, show the price is between $8k and $15k. Wow.
I actually liked the overall look/feel of this. Only thing that I hate about these giant super mansions is they never feel like it's something that's been lived in or something that could be lived in it always looks like something that is just there to look at. Another thing I didn't like wasn't that first open shower/bath bathtub was completely pointless there the whole point of a bathtub is to sit and relax and kind of enjoy The view and as much as that guy went on and on about the view that bathtub was not seeing it. I also really like the natural stuff that's inside of the house. And the house does close completely for the most part. But there is open parts that are partially exposed 100% of the time.
No dude. It was fucking awful. So many insects, coyotes, and snakes would get in. There would be insects just swarming you, unless there are none to speak of in Vegas. Also, there's absolutely NO privacy in any of the bathrooms. Also, why the hell would you have a kitchen in the bathroom?
@@anakinlowground5515 In vegas we don’t really have an insect problem at all really but coyotes and snakes especially in the desert ya you are fucked if you have a small dog
Yeah, this one is legit attractive to me. I could do without all the tubs everywhere and the more extravagant bits and would probably close off some of the more open spaces to improve coziness but overall it's a sick pad. But I'm also heavily biased towards desert aesthetics and bringing the outdoors indoors so lol. Although I wouldn't like the view of the other mansions below me, I think it'd be better if the surrounding area was just more desert with the cityscape in the background.
I like the chairs at four minutes in, because they remind me of the ones my grandfather made. Little sort of shelf running under the middle of the table doesn't seem like the best place to store dishes though, no? They're going to get knocked to the ground by someone's knees, or a kid swinging their feet around at the table.
As someone who likes the look and feel of the desert, I like this house. Maybe shrink it by 1/2 and cut out some of the plants/cactus stuff and I would totally live in it.
3 bananas worth of radiation is probably one of the funniest things I've heard in a while lol. Also 4:04 the timing of Charly's burp stretching while the lady started laughing was pretty funny.
Cleaning dust will be a nightmare. I lived in Las Vegas for 4 years. Dust mitigation for outdoor spaces and furniture is nuts. Las Vegas Mornings are some of the best.
Nice to see that some comments are giving her credit for at least having her house have some of her *own* personal things that makes it different then other houses in this series
One thing I gotta say: keeping invasive plants to a minimum is a good thing because lawns are an ecological disaster. This doesn't mean you need to use all the pointy ones though.
"Toxic" probably refers to the finish they use on wood. Same as the "new car smell", paints and finishes releasing harmul chemicals for some time after a brand new coating has been applied.
Those extra bedrooms are for the cleaning staff because they'll be spending all their time cleaning those windows and that stagnant moss "pool" in this gmod deathrun map disguised as a mansion
I kinda like it not gonna lie, not too into the fuzzy dining chairs but the breakfast stools do warm the room up and I like the pattern on the seats. I think what she means by 'masculine' is the design term for sharp edges and high contrast between dark and light. When you add smooth edges or warmer, colourful tones it usually is described as 'feminine'. It goes way back and it's silly but it's just how the language around interior design developed. I'm a designer so this pretentiousness is the best shorthand way to describe it for suppliers, builders, sellers etc.
I liked the stools too. The materials and lines were definitely manly. She didn't really connect what she meant about the aging leather and the previous owner of the land but it sounded like she saw something of his that had aged well and wanted that element for herself over time.
Yea i actually kinda like that green chair, maybe because i love green, but the overall house is not bad, even though its totally not my taste, it actually had some characters, i think charlie is abit harsh on this one
@@kombuchas4684 No one outside of interior designers knows the terms though and I like interior design. It'd be like a mechanic getting frustrated at someone not knowing what a transmitter does or what horsepower means, you have to be aware not everyone knows it by heart
I was turned away from my screen and for a second I thought she burped then laughed at her own burp in the middle of her interview and I was just thinking “what a fuckin power move”
As an MD, I actually cringe every time I hear this bs about "oh it releases toxins". I don't even have to know the rest of the story, they're always bs. Plus if you're so worried about VOCs, please replace all the surfaces and inner structures of your house since they're not built with the same thoughts in mind. "But mah child sleeps in it". Yeah, and your child breathes the same air that's in your house. Google what the first letter in VOC stands for and think again.
Tbh I absolutely love the concept of that house, with nature integrated into every part of the house inside and out, but of all the places in the world to build a house with this much nature integration and stuff they build it in the most boring lifeless places on earth? A god damn desert? I'd be in love with this kind of house if it was anywhere else but a damn dessert. The mountains, the Forrest, the coastline. Anywhere would make it so much more beautiful than a desert, not necessarily Vegas, just any desert is such a shitty place to have made that house
That moment when you're showering in the outdoor shower and a gust of wind blows away your loofah so now you're staring at the reflection of the cactus 2 cm behind you and suddenly you get an itch on your back
This is a shame to me. Deserts in the western US, to me, are beautiful, just as much as the forests and mountains. They’re a different kind of pretty, and in winter when everything’s dormant it can look pretty dull, but it’s really pretty out there. Golden sand and rock with patchy, vibrant greens and a deep blue sky-and the sunrises/sunsets are unforgettable. Deserts are chock full of life and beauty!
Maybe it's just a 'grass is always greener' thing, so to speak, but I think deserts look really cool. Blew my mind to learn that saguaros routinely make it to 150, 200 years old, and most pictures really don't convey just how massive they can get. Really want to see some in person one day.
Lifeless? Oh there’d be plenty of life crawling around that house in no time. Not just running into the occasional scorpion or spider, but the fact they could easily nest up under some of the rocks and plants in your house if not kept up with. Not to mention the other problems this mansion would have to deal with like sand and extreme heat, especially since it’s built to let natural light in so even with ac, it’ll turn into a sauna in there.
Working with home designers at my current job, masculine/feminine usually just means curves/soft edges/light vs angles/bold/dark appearances. As for myself, those things don't mean a lot to me, but some people like labeling everything so they can feel good about spouting wordy descriptions off to the people hiring them to remodel their homes. c: Sarcasm aside, texture, size and color do have a big visual effect on a space, so I kinda get it...I just don't care that much outside of work.
I have installed multi-room home theater system in several McMansions. Oodles of 'new money' with lots to prove and little taste. The hardest part of the job was keeping a straight face as the client rattled off a list of contradictory 'essential elements' "I want a room totally isolated from all radio waves. A Faraday cage where my brain can take refuge from the entire electromagnetic spectrum!" "Also, it it's not too much trouble, I need a T1 line, WiFi, intercom, speakers and a plasma-screen TV covering the entire east wall. By Friday." "Oh, cell-phone reception better be perfect in there, or I'm not gonna pay!" Names were changed to protect the stupid, but Big Sports™ money and celebrity endorsements bought the house.
@@saturn6784 I assume u haven't watched better call saul before think... big cage that blocks all eletromagnetic signals from entering said cage.

My cousin from China bought a whole castle in France for next to nothing and he got well along with the neighboring village and its mayor so they helped him set up a vineyard and everything, now he's part of the local winemaking association and the place is doing really well. :D
the house looks perfect for one I would build in Minecraft with one of those photorealistic ray tracing 8K texture packs, extreme lighting and scenes but now it just seems like someone copy pasted it into real life and it can't be appreciated as such anymore, so weird
my fear with the cacti house layout is being in vegas there's turantulas and scorpions roaming, you'd be in for a big scare and there's tons of plants for them to hide in
Ashley Tisdale's mansion is actually quite tame. She's super extra trying to show off by saying artsy fartsy things to the camera about her decor and all but the layout and set-up of the house itself is modern and fresh. The decor was somewhat tacky but imagine some cooler stuff.
Single handedly keeping the cactus industry going. I get some people love putting plants everywhere in their house but filling a house with cacti? Charlie is right, if you get wasted imagine just falling over into a cactus
I assume their target demographic isn't going to live in that mansion. I can't see how anyone can actually live there and start a family in the middle of a desert.
I wouldn't mind I love cacti. Grow a ton of them. The only reason I would move to the desert is because it's perfect for growing cacti. Also half these cacti are san pedro which contain mescaline like peyote lol. Could boil a foot cutting and have an amazing trip.
Jesus Christ I can't imagine living in these houses. Just give me a small apartment with fast internet and working comfortable bathroom and I'll never move to another house for the rest of my life
@Zek Kiel it's not the best condition financially, but a man can dream. I hate owning a house and having the responsibility for it. Medium-Big house is not for me, ever. I prefer to live alone and don't have any intention on having a family so apartment is the way to go. I'm also big on having as little of stuff as possible, so that I can move whenever I feel like it. It might be stupid, but if I can't live my life the way I want to, what's the point.
My dream is to have a small, old house that I can fix up myself and make it feel more like mine. The house I currently live in is my family’s house, so it’s pretty darn big to fit all of us, and I love it. It’s beautiful, it’s actually easy to clean despite its size, and there’s enough natural light coming in without cooking all of us alive. It’s just a standard family home design here in Texas, but it’s worlds better than these mansions…
@Zek Kiel to you maybe, but I find solace in isolation. Doesn't mean that I prefer to be isolated for the rest of my life and become a hermit. I simply cherish my own company more than most. To each their own I suppose.
@Zek Kiel i dont think it’s sad. It makes sense for him. I live in a home to because it makes sense for me, i have a husband and dog and may have a kid one day. Azusas sound like he likes to be alone so a home is not convenient for him. What I do find sad is multiple ppl living in an apartment.
The amount of sand that would accumulate in that Nevada desert house would be enough to drive anyone mad.. No maid in the world would last two full days.. It’s a nightmare.
If you look at one room of these mansions it will look absolutely sick 95% of the time but then when you think about what it would be like to actually live in the mansion you realize how much it would suck.
It’s just a bunch of wasted space. Especially when there is usually just one single person or a couple that live in them. They’re usually not even home. There’s only like 3 beds. If I had infinite wealth I would make one of these mansions to fit my 15 adopted children and cats lmao. Why have all that space and aesthetic with no one to enjoy it?
These $25 million mansions are just as practical as the diamond block houses I made in minecraft when I was a kid

As someone who lives in a desert, I can assure you, the dust storms will be unforgivable in that home. My friend left a backdoor cracked when one blew through and the house looked like no one lived there for 20 years, the amount of dust was choking me. Great idea for a home in the desert to not have walls. Prime example of an architect that doesn't live in the area.
You do know these type of homes can close, right?
@@bajabl He's literally talking about accidentally leaving a door cracked open and the dust storms flooding the house. This is a house made of open windows. Even if they can be shut, you only have to forget to hit the button once or wait a bit too long, and your house is a dustbowl.
@@bajabl One bad crack in all of those window seals and you might be screwed like OP's friend. The rooftop patios and pools are gonna be an expensive clean too.
@@bajabl I did not, and can assure you that I have never, nor ever will be near one of these homes. lol The risk, as others have stated, is leaving a cracked window, or having one damaged without knowing. It just takes one and half that home is caked in dust. Now I don't think the owner would care. Anyone who has that much money will just hire a cleaner, but that's a whole other issue. Some people have too much money and would actually buy a fully wooden home near a volcano just because they can't figure out how to spend it all.

Fun fact: While VOCs are real a lot of them are also used in the house. So buying a non-toxic crib is usually worthless unless you can also ensure your house also lacks those compounds which for 99% of people they can't do.
Fun fact: proximity to exposure makes a difference, and less toxic chemicals is objectively better than more of them.

I feel like there's a cap with how much money you can spend on a house until it becomes ridiculous.
Yeah, this is the problem I have with these "modern architecture" stuff and all of this overthink that often goes into home decoration and stuff. Even before that awful mansion showed up, these uncomfortable chairs in the Ashley's house segment, they're so overthought and unnecessarily complicated, which made them almost useless since they're so uncomfortable.
Huge mansion full of wasps, dust, stones, cati/pins, flies and stuff because the designer/architect thought having an open concept in 100+ degrees was a good idea

Charlie's cactus paranoia with that one house is hilarious lmao
If I'm not mistaken, a lot of those cacti are San Pedro cacti, and they're the best source of mescaline short of peyote (and totally legal to grow and own so long as you're not clearly extracting or consuming them, wink wink.) So the cactus house is actually pretty valuable in that sense lol. At least if you live there you know at any moment you're never more than a couple hours from full-blown 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenethylamine bliss.

My favorite part of that “pool” is when the needles fall off of the cactus into the water and you get to enjoy them being stabbed into the bottom of your palms and feet as you crawl like a crab around the shallow failure.
How the hell do you clean that nightmare?
@@if7723 drain the pool and vacuum i guess. Buying a house like this means you can afford a cleaning service
oh my god that sounds awful
@@jebaited9612 actually there is a vacuum pool cleaners use to vaccuum the floor while the pool is still full. All pools tend to get some form of sediment settled on the bottom either bc wind blows stuff into the pool and it settles down at the bottom, or the ppl who own it go barefoot, get their feet dirty and wash it off by going in the pool. Having to drain and clean a pool every single time it's a little dirty would be wasting water, most of the time it's only done if the pool has not been cleaned in a loooong time
I have a feeling the they removed the needles from the cacti but I’m not sure.
As a Californian, I give her credit. We're in a drought so she chose to decorate with desert plants and rocks instead of a huge water guzzling grass lawn with flowers. My neighbor is environmentally conscious and does the same. The state of California also gives you a tax refund for not having a grass lawn.
California will buy you needles and crack pipes too!
Fuck monoculture lawns, all my homies hate monoculture lawns

@@biggiesad7142 it is

Having a grill under a roof in a house with no walls or ventilation, other than the wind, is gonna fill the house with smoke and the scent of meat or fish and is gonna attract so many wild animals in the desert. Also, all those stagnant pools of water are gonna cause so many bugs to swarm.
Imagine walking to the kitchen at night but end up accidentally walking into one of the cactus 💀
To be fair at least she’s way more personable than anyone else in these kinds of videos.
My favorite house tour was Dakota Johnson; For those who don't know, I guess her house had been professionally staged for the house tour but she hadn't seen the staging, and when she went to give the tour of the kitchen there were two huge bowls full of limes on the counter next to the sink. She got so thrown off by them being there that she hyperfixated on them and went off about how much she loved limes and how great limes were. Then she started showing off some other stuff that was probably just staged for the tour.
She later revealed in an interview that she's actually mildly allergic to limes.
I cannot stand her for a millisecond
You've got a point !
@@ed8212 you've never met her that's like me judging you based off your comment
@@ed8212 well at least she has a good reputation for being nice to fans and doesn’t have any huge stupid controversies surrounding her
With the toxic cribs thing, basically all furniture materials used by major producers give off some type of particulate. Usually not an issue because at least 90% of people are not babies and have more developed immune and respiratory systems that fight against them. It’s not even really an issue for most babies, but some children with pre-existing conditions do need non toxic cribs
Also, those gasses will only come off in non-trivial quantities when you burn the coatings
People tend to forget that babies lick and suck on everything including cribs
Its actually just for Jack Jack when he sets himself on fire. Can't have him inhaling phenols now can we?
True but for example phtalates are endocrine disruptors and in many cases enter the body through skin or pass the immune system check. And they are dangerous for everyone because exposure can cause cancer and fertility issues. I think the damage depends on the amount but since you oeple are exposed to those daily, it's good to eliminate the sources you know of and have control over.
@@saal0 man I don't want toxic gases coming off a baby crib in any quantities,I feel like that should be an important thing for a parent to put their foot down on
9:35 Charlie is right, especially in the 'European Ghost Town's, the IS more to it!
If you buy a house in italy in one of those ghost town's, where there are only old people and you have to drive to the next biggest city to get everything, you have in the buying contract a saying that you HAVE to fix the house to modern standarts in ONE YEAR!
I know this becouse i have seen a contract for ine house from a friend of mine, her parent's have ton's of money so she got her home fices in no time.
Never mind the wildlife, what about people getting in? Even if you can close down everything in that Vegas mansion, the place is so massive that there's got to be plenty of blindspots to sneak in even if people are at home and have just left shit open. No way you can have eyes on everywhere in a property that looks like its built to accommodate 100 guests. Also, severe lack of doors? Don't mind me I'm just going for a bath in my hallway tub
As someone who has lived in Las Vegas, this entire house would turn into a $25 million dollar sauna, because all of that glass and open open areas will do nothing to help you in 110 degree heat.
You do know these type of homes can close, right?
This! Its literally a terrarium of death. It would cost a truly terrifying amount to keep it at a livable temperature.
@@bajabl Sure, but the walls are mostly glass, non-insulated, and I’ve never seen a closing wall with a perfect seal. It would help, but at 110+ it’s not going to be enough to keep it cool by a long shot.

Re: cribs.
Firstly you have off gassing, so whatever chemicals were trapped in the packaging being released when you assemble the crib.
Then you have the fact that a teething baby is likely to chew on their crib, exposing them to whatever chemicals were used in processing and finishing the wood. Just FYI. 😊

@@uhmmmFU Jesus, hadn't even thought of that. Even where I live, the pavement can get hot enough to burn pets' feet in the summer - and I live in Canada.
imagine having to spend like 5 hours watering those cacti💀
I seriously wonder what kind of sadistic psycopath would think surrounding an entire mansion with cactus as if you are setting up a natural trap house would be good. Like,why even cactus in the first place?
As someone from Vegas, here are my points;
1. It's literally over 100 degrees Fahrenheit most of the year, having so much natural lighting means your house will be unbearably hot, even with AC blasting.
2. Yes, there is wind, especially at higher elevations. What'll be worse, though, is monsoon season and dust storms.
3. Since we've been in a drought for decades, there's a mandatory watering schedule and some restrictions on how much you're supposed to use. It's too expensive for some people to water their lawns, so desert landscaping (i.e., cacti, desert shrubs, rocks, etc) is super popular. Not sure why they did that with the cacti but then included THREE WATER FEATURES, but I guess that explains what all the money went to.
I don't envy the year-round heat or heavy water restrictions, but I wish desert landscaping worked where I live. I love how big cacti can get in their natural environments.
@@aepigeons9375 where do you live?
@@astrangeodor
Quebec... with winter windchill, -30 Celsius/-22 Fahrenheit isn't uncommon. Happen to have family in Canada's one semi-arid desert region, but it's at the other end of the country.
Also the water will be a breeding ground for mosquitoes. Wildlife has a high chance at getting in (especially since it’s near/in the mountains area) and every other year we get those swarms of locusts that cake everything.. clearly this house was made by someone who doesn’t/never lived in Las Vegas cause this house is not at all ideal for our environment.. the only thing that makes sense is the cactus because by the time the summer is over that’s the only thing that would have survived in and on the house
When rich people try to be environmentally friendly
Ashley’s house isn’t even bad it’s her just name dropping expensive ass brands that everyday ppl don’t care about lol
It's a video for architectural digest so the people who watch those videos DO care about that kind of stuff.

Charlie complains about some of these houses being "isolated" and "completely cut off from society".
How is that a bad thing?
I fucking HATE people.
I would love a place with no-one around.
Absolutely. I'd love a property with enough space to get into crafts, like blacksmithing, without neighbors filling a noise complaint.
Then when you suffer a stroke, got robbed or murdered no one will be able to help you or find your body for days
That's a you problem, most people despise isolation.
Charlie isnt catching that its free, because you have to move it. This actually happens a lot... Someone wants the lot but doesnt want the house. So instead of demolishing a perfectly good house, especially an old historic one like this one, they try and get someone to move it. But to move a mansion cost exactly what they said it would, or more... if you can even find someone to do it. Then you have to have somewhere to move it to that will allow you to place it. Yet again, thats a feat better spoken about than actually obtained.
Now, if it was "The house is free, you don thave to move it but you dont own the land except for a tiny easement strip around the outside... Someone would snatch that shit up in a heartbeat. But compounding the fact that you have to find someone to move it to a lot you already own that doesnt have any ordinances involving house relocations (a LOT of places are "new development only") and THEN the cost of inspecting and repairing anything that broke in the move... THEN remodeling it to make it updated as you would want to do. Its... its just not worth it.
4:03 the face/laughter Ashley does is hilariously timed with the burping
I'm your 300th liker here & bye.
I've lived in Las Vegas for most of my life and I can't imagine who would want to have those giant windows open in the summer when it's 110+ degrees. He says that you'd get a nice breeze but it's like standing in an oven when it's windy. I'd say the outdoor areas will be essentially unusable for at least four months of the year unless there's some sort of covering.
why not tint the windows?
That cactus mansion is one the most impersonal houses I've seen. Cold and sterile. Probably perfect for a billionaire.

Another thing I didn't like wasn't that first open shower/bath bathtub was completely pointless there the whole point of a bathtub is to sit and relax and kind of enjoy The view and as much as that guy went on and on about the view that bathtub was not seeing it.
I also really like the natural stuff that's inside of the house. And the house does close completely for the most part. But there is open parts that are partially exposed 100% of the time.
No dude. It was fucking awful. So many insects, coyotes, and snakes would get in. There would be insects just swarming you, unless there are none to speak of in Vegas. Also, there's absolutely NO privacy in any of the bathrooms. Also, why the hell would you have a kitchen in the bathroom?

Can’t wait until we can get videos and Charlie and the crew walking into peoples mansions and giving a tour themselves.
Ashley acts as if the bullies called her weird and quirky as a kid and she’s super embracing it now that it’s trendy.
horrible rich housing is perhaps my most favorite content from Charlie. when I saw that this was 30 minutes long, I was overjoyed
yeah same
Rolling my third joint for this treat
So it's a house for pricks?
I found u again. Give me your account name backstory now! I will hunt you down in the comments :D
nice one😂
what you did there, I saw it
best comment
@@annikadejean8706 Hell yeah
"Toxic" probably refers to the finish they use on wood. Same as the "new car smell", paints and finishes releasing harmul chemicals for some time after a brand new coating has been applied.
Those extra bedrooms are for the cleaning staff because they'll be spending all their time cleaning those windows and that stagnant moss "pool" in this gmod deathrun map disguised as a mansion
I kinda like it not gonna lie, not too into the fuzzy dining chairs but the breakfast stools do warm the room up and I like the pattern on the seats. I think what she means by 'masculine' is the design term for sharp edges and high contrast between dark and light. When you add smooth edges or warmer, colourful tones it usually is described as 'feminine'. It goes way back and it's silly but it's just how the language around interior design developed. I'm a designer so this pretentiousness is the best shorthand way to describe it for suppliers, builders, sellers etc.
I liked the stools too. The materials and lines were definitely manly. She didn't really connect what she meant about the aging leather and the previous owner of the land but it sounded like she saw something of his that had aged well and wanted that element for herself over time.
yeah Charlie missed the mark on this one. Masculine and feminine are very common way to describe spaces in interior design
Yea i actually kinda like that green chair, maybe because i love green, but the overall house is not bad, even though its totally not my taste, it actually had some characters, i think charlie is abit harsh on this one
Those bar stools were really nice
@@kombuchas4684 No one outside of interior designers knows the terms though and I like interior design. It'd be like a mechanic getting frustrated at someone not knowing what a transmitter does or what horsepower means, you have to be aware not everyone knows it by heart
4:03 she starts laughing at Moist's burps
At least somebody else connected the dots
Haha
I was turned away from my screen and for a second I thought she burped then laughed at her own burp in the middle of her interview and I was just thinking “what a fuckin power move”
Nah bro that's his good stretch
As an MD, I actually cringe every time I hear this bs about "oh it releases toxins". I don't even have to know the rest of the story, they're always bs.
Plus if you're so worried about VOCs, please replace all the surfaces and inner structures of your house since they're not built with the same thoughts in mind. "But mah child sleeps in it". Yeah, and your child breathes the same air that's in your house. Google what the first letter in VOC stands for and think again.
At least the first house looked like someone was actually living there.

Tbh I absolutely love the concept of that house, with nature integrated into every part of the house inside and out, but of all the places in the world to build a house with this much nature integration and stuff they build it in the most boring lifeless places on earth? A god damn desert? I'd be in love with this kind of house if it was anywhere else but a damn dessert. The mountains, the Forrest, the coastline. Anywhere would make it so much more beautiful than a desert, not necessarily Vegas, just any desert is such a shitty place to have made that house
That moment when you're showering in the outdoor shower and a gust of wind blows away your loofah so now you're staring at the reflection of the cactus 2 cm behind you and suddenly you get an itch on your back
@@SuperAdnan117 😂😂😂
This is a shame to me. Deserts in the western US, to me, are beautiful, just as much as the forests and mountains. They’re a different kind of pretty, and in winter when everything’s dormant it can look pretty dull, but it’s really pretty out there. Golden sand and rock with patchy, vibrant greens and a deep blue sky-and the sunrises/sunsets are unforgettable. Deserts are chock full of life and beauty!
Maybe it's just a 'grass is always greener' thing, so to speak, but I think deserts look really cool. Blew my mind to learn that saguaros routinely make it to 150, 200 years old, and most pictures really don't convey just how massive they can get. Really want to see some in person one day.
Lifeless? Oh there’d be plenty of life crawling around that house in no time. Not just running into the occasional scorpion or spider, but the fact they could easily nest up under some of the rocks and plants in your house if not kept up with. Not to mention the other problems this mansion would have to deal with like sand and extreme heat, especially since it’s built to let natural light in so even with ac, it’ll turn into a sauna in there.
Working with home designers at my current job, masculine/feminine usually just means curves/soft edges/light vs angles/bold/dark appearances. As for myself, those things don't mean a lot to me, but some people like labeling everything so they can feel good about spouting wordy descriptions off to the people hiring them to remodel their homes. c:
Sarcasm aside, texture, size and color do have a big visual effect on a space, so I kinda get it...I just don't care that much outside of work.
Brought back a long lost memory with those lil sticks
I have installed multi-room home theater system in several McMansions.
Oodles of 'new money' with lots to prove and little taste.
The hardest part of the job was keeping a straight face as the client rattled off a list of contradictory 'essential elements'
"I want a room totally isolated from all radio waves. A Faraday cage where my brain can take refuge from the entire electromagnetic spectrum!"
"Also, it it's not too much trouble, I need a T1 line, WiFi, intercom, speakers and a plasma-screen TV covering the entire east wall. By Friday."
"Oh, cell-phone reception better be perfect in there, or I'm not gonna pay!"
Names were changed to protect the stupid, but Big Sports™ money and celebrity endorsements bought the house.
Ever seen "The Jerk", by chance?
True
I'm sorry a Faraday Cage tf?
@@saturn6784 I assume u haven't watched better call saul before
think... big cage that blocks all eletromagnetic signals from entering said cage. You then can enter said cage to take a break and 'cleanse' yourself from all things electric
simplified but good enough of an example.
edit: if you knew what it was but was just shocked it was a request, again, i assume u haven't watched better call saul lol.
some people really do fear the damage it 'can do' to our bodies
@@WebkinzUser2012 yeah I was more shocked at the request lmao
5:05 “I want it to emit at least 3 bananas worth of radiation” 💀💀💀
Most bed frames have toxic paint. There's usually a big ol sign that comes attached to them.
My cousin from China bought a whole castle in France for next to nothing and he got well along with the neighboring village and its mayor so they helped him set up a vineyard and everything, now he's part of the local winemaking association and the place is doing really well. :D
the house looks perfect for one I would build in Minecraft with one of those photorealistic ray tracing 8K texture packs, extreme lighting and scenes but now it just seems like someone copy pasted it into real life and it can't be appreciated as such anymore, so weird
that's exactly what I thought too lol
LOL
LOL
That random bathtub outside really makes it seem like a house someone designed on Sims
my fear with the cacti house layout is being in vegas there's turantulas and scorpions roaming, you'd be in for a big scare and there's tons of plants for them to hide in
Ashley Tisdale's mansion is actually quite tame. She's super extra trying to show off by saying artsy fartsy things to the camera about her decor and all but the layout and set-up of the house itself is modern and fresh. The decor was somewhat tacky but imagine some cooler stuff.
Single handedly keeping the cactus industry going. I get some people love putting plants everywhere in their house but filling a house with cacti?
Charlie is right, if you get wasted imagine just falling over into a cactus
I assume their target demographic isn't going to live in that mansion. I can't see how anyone can actually live there and start a family in the middle of a desert.
Pog
I wouldn't mind I love cacti. Grow a ton of them. The only reason I would move to the desert is because it's perfect for growing cacti. Also half these cacti are san pedro which contain mescaline like peyote lol. Could boil a foot cutting and have an amazing trip.
Jesus Christ I can't imagine living in these houses. Just give me a small apartment with fast internet and working comfortable bathroom and I'll never move to another house for the rest of my life
Agree. Studio apartment is the easiest.
@Zek Kiel it's not the best condition financially, but a man can dream. I hate owning a house and having the responsibility for it. Medium-Big house is not for me, ever. I prefer to live alone and don't have any intention on having a family so apartment is the way to go. I'm also big on having as little of stuff as possible, so that I can move whenever I feel like it. It might be stupid, but if I can't live my life the way I want to, what's the point.
My dream is to have a small, old house that I can fix up myself and make it feel more like mine. The house I currently live in is my family’s house, so it’s pretty darn big to fit all of us, and I love it. It’s beautiful, it’s actually easy to clean despite its size, and there’s enough natural light coming in without cooking all of us alive. It’s just a standard family home design here in Texas, but it’s worlds better than these mansions…
@Zek Kiel to you maybe, but I find solace in isolation. Doesn't mean that I prefer to be isolated for the rest of my life and become a hermit. I simply cherish my own company more than most. To each their own I suppose.
@Zek Kiel i dont think it’s sad. It makes sense for him. I live in a home to because it makes sense for me, i have a husband and dog and may have a kid one day. Azusas sound like he likes to be alone so a home is not convenient for him. What I do find sad is multiple ppl living in an apartment.
The amount of sand that would accumulate in that Nevada desert house would be enough to drive anyone mad.. No maid in the world would last two full days.. It’s a nightmare.
i hate imagining how many bugs you would have to deal with in these houses
If you look at one room of these mansions it will look absolutely sick 95% of the time but then when you think about what it would be like to actually live in the mansion you realize how much it would suck.
It’s just a bunch of wasted space. Especially when there is usually just one single person or a couple that live in them. They’re usually not even home. There’s only like 3 beds. If I had infinite wealth I would make one of these mansions to fit my 15 adopted children and cats lmao. Why have all that space and aesthetic with no one to enjoy it?
