I mean, I’m all for better insulated homes. I will say it’ll be hard to convince people to go for this aesthetic, though. It’s very 80s.

I don't think the photo at the start of the article has anything to do with it, it's credited as a stock image. Was there another picture?

Right now I feel like MCM is having a moment sooooo maybe in twenty years the prices on this will go down and 80s style will be back in fashion?

If only we had 20 years. In 20 years this shit won’t matter because we’ll be on the other side of that precipice, barreling toward oblivion.
