I came across Mr Doodle on today's BBC news. The house and the doodles are real ( ie not computer generated).

From The Times

"How Sam Cox — aka Mr Doodle — turned his £1.35 million Kent mansion into an eye-popping work of art and nearly lost his mind in the process. There are no clues that Sam Cox's house is any different to the others on the quiet country lane in Kent."

How appalling to have to look at that every day.

I haven't read the article, but, going by the youtube video, surely the front of the house being covered in doodles is a big clue?

It looks like the kind of camouflage trip that car that designers get up to when they're road testing a new model:

But car designers are deliberately setting out to confuse our brains. Why in the name of all that's holy would you want to do that to your own brain?

"Not tonight dear, I've got a headache. Can't we just move house or something?"

"By the way, dear, where ARE you?" :D

Camouflage? The driver just drove through the parcels department at Maseratti and a team of students attempted the Guinness World Record for the largest parcel wrapped in packing tape.
