The last of those reminds me of when we were first house hunting in London. We rang a doorbell a few times for a viewing with no answer and were just about to leave when we heard a flushing noise and a wee old man appeared at the door. He then made the mistake of showing off his poorly ventilated Harry-Potter-Cupboard-Loo-Conversion first. The stench would have floored a horse.

CONS
1. Those stairs.
2. Window going into ceiling.
3. No symmetry.
4. Each window opens in a different direction?
PROS
1. If you look at it long enough, you can trick your brain into thinking it sees a large-screen television showing a home show.

I kinda like that first picture, apart from how the doorway opens onto the stairs, which is an accident waiting to happen.
