Teresa Giudice’s House

Town: Towaco, NJ

Size: 12,000 sq ft

Architect who would despise this: Venturi

Value: $4,000,000

The beauty of this house lies in comparing the front elevation with the aerial shot of the house. It makes me think of what Venturi calls a "decorated shed", when huge, mass produced megamarts slap a sign on their huge warehouse box of a store. I don’t see much difference between how Walmart decorates its square stores with its logo and this box decorated with “sophistocated”, “French” finishings.
