It’s a nice photo, but it’s made possible by what 19th century writers condemned as vulgar soulless tasteless capitalist mass-market trash. I rather like it. I wouldn’t mind living in a place like this, even if it was identical to my neighbours.
A few years ago I visited William Morris’s lovely childhood home, financed by the sale of poisonous toxic wallpaper. Many authors lament the irony of the house becoming surrounded by “vulgar villas”. But I thought it was a pleasant typical suburban London neighbourhood. Yes, all the houses look the same. And they have indoor plumbing and a nicely designed kitchen.

Great use of contrast by use of a good eye for lighting.

Very nice, the variation in color from unit to unit adds interest.

My first thought was that it was the score for a Beethoven piano concerto.
