I wouldn't have expected an old school guy like Asper to do the modern minimalist thing 20 years ago... not many people were into that.
I'm sure the craftsmanship is top notch but not too many people in the under 60 crowd are going to be feeling that kind of ornate, somewhat over the top design.
That's the tricky thing with super high end custom homes... people with the money to buy it also have the money to do whatever they want to suit their tastes. It could end up being a bit like the big mansion at 1063 Wellington that was on the market for years at something like $11 million... did anyone end up buying it? Anyway, I believe that was the site of Izzy's old house before he moved into the condo and it was replaced by the current residence.
