What really gets me about Seppo houses is the doorknobs, though.
yeah what’s the deal with the little globe door handles that give you no leverage and you have to awkwardly twist your wrist to open the door? and what’s the deal with the useles little clicky lock thing in the middle? what smart brain designed this bullshit and what lobbyist paid off their whole nation to get them installed everywhere?
They’re actually against code in a lot of places these days specifically because they’re hard to grip and turn for anyone with reduced grip strength, and a pain to open with occupied hands
If a house has them they can stay, but for renovations or new builds a lot of people are going with regular paddle style door handles

their windows are also dogshit. i have no idea what went wrong. i blame anglo culture.
They look nice and they’re not that inconvenient. Also, they’re more difficult to catch clothes or elbows on.
