Mcmansions

From colonials to Victorians to ranch-style houses and McMansions, the story of American residential architecture is that it tends to be eclectic.

The lavish Gilded Age mansions of the late 1800s and modern-day McMansions both reflect the conspicuous consumption of a powerful wealthy class.

But do bigger houses, sometimes called McMansions, make people happier?

I love how we're more concerned with whipping up these ridiculous McMansions instead of building affordable housing.
