Dilbert got a new home.

Check out the specs and take a virtual tour, maybe you can build it in SL!

What a cool house. I hope someone tries to build this, it would take a lot of prims.

Some of the design ideas are interesting, but the house is too chaotic for my taste. It seems like a dozen good features were slapped together without any consideration for overall aesthetics. In short, it's obviously an engineer's house.

This reminds me of the real-world Simpsons house that was constructed some years back. Great fun -- I'd like to see more designs from the "real world" come into SL, and vice-versa.

In terms of aesthetics your right - the appearance is chaotic, but the design is incredibly functional. I will be moving soon in RL and we are doing a small amount of remodeling and the "Cat Room" is so cool that I think I will include one in my new RL house!

I dont mean to hijack, but the Simpsons house was mentioned. Here is an old bookmark I had to floor plans to their house.

Cool beans. Yeah Loki I think I once mentioned to you that I was looking for other fantastic creations such as a Dr. Seuss house... one of the best examples I can think of right now is the Mushroom Kingdom.

There's a Dilbert joke that's almost rising up to my mind but I can't quite remember what it was. It was about building maintenance. :)
