This little wood frame house at 1091 Madison Street in Bushwick has had a major overhaul! It now sports a Tetris mural on a stucco facade.

In March, the house was draped in scaffolding. Before that, it was covered in white vinyl siding. Click through to see lots of before and after photos.

  1. It’s funny how polarizing this.. Tetris House is to people in this mail thread.

    Personally, a stab at creativity can’t hurt the neighborhood, the majority of which doesn’t have the stonemason-worked brownstones the likes of which you see in the background logos of sites such as this, or when the word Brooklyn is bandied about in news articles and shutterstock pictures of Park Slope houses are presented. No, the alternative are the raggedy, yellow or white vinyl sided houses you see like the neighbors of Tetris House, which I wish could also do something interesting.

    Don’t knock creative attempts – especially when what’s being replaced is something bland and extremely boring.

  2. As much as I hate EIFS, cedar siding is much more expensive to install, much more expensive to maintain and less environmentally friendly. You get a lot of insulation out of EIFS with very little money.
