Architect Thomas Paino is firing back at blogs like—uh—us, who criticized the aesthetics of his multi-hued row house in Long Island City, the borough's first passive house. "People tried to throw rocks at the [Renaissance] pictures because they weren't used to paintings that had depth," Paino said. "This house is going to be an example in the architecture world." (This seems like a good time to highlight the funniest comments from that post, which compared the house to "where GI Joe would live if he was colorblind" and "the awesomely tacky 'Sand Jar Art' of the Seventies.")
