Interesting Buildings

Postby Silver_Surfer1 » Tue May 8, '12, 4:35 pm

Here's a thread to showcase interesting or unusual buildings. I've been browsing around online recently and saw quite a few sights that were beautiful but rather unusual from what you might normally expect to see in a building or otherwise structure.

First up, here's an upside down house:

How would you like to live in a house like this one lol?

Incredible house ! I love the style ! Sure I'll be happy to live in one of those houses...but maybe it is unique ? :) Must surely be very strange indeed.

I don't think that would be a good place to live, unless you have a lot of seasickness medicine. It would be very disorienting until you got used to the unusual layout.

THOUL : maybe but as we didn"'t see the interior of this building, maybe (surely!) all is inversed so no problem about it I think ! But a nuisance may be the tourists or different visitors wanting to take photos or worst ...visit it ? ;)

Another interesting building for your viewing pleasure. :)

This interesting site is located in Spain:

Hmmm, I don't know why, but looking at this building sort of makes me hungry for some reason. :wink: :lol:

Great ! All those buildings are great because it's very different from our traditional houses and flats so that's great !!
