Blue Mockday

At 15A Malsbury Street, Bicton, the blue-lined Tudor trim provides a smart alternative to the usual black.

Again, note the Cocos palms, and power boat, working in complete thematic harmony with the Tudor era.

Mock the boat, don't mock the boat, baby.

Here's the side view of 3 Angove Lane, Bicton.

The subtle Tudorbethan window casings, I think, are perfectly complemented by the powerboat, gazebo and pizza oven.

This wonderful specimen at 3 Angove Lane in Bicton proves Western Australia's love affair with Mock Tudor is not merely due to the state's seemingly endless supplies of asbestos and asbestos cladding.

It was built in the late 1980s or early 1990s, well after asbestos Hardiflex was outlawed as a building product.

Unfortunately, there's no such legislation banning bad taste.
