I love looking at architecture anywhere and everywhere, home and around the world, and even when it's corny, if it's fucked up enough i like that too.
A few weeks ago BoingBoing ran a cool piece and i was inspired by that to turn you onto these places and the sites they came from Unusual Architecture and VIllage of Joy.
Ewok House (Location unknown)
Erwin Wurm: House Attack (Viena, Austria)
Habitat 67 (Montreal, Canada)
Wonderworks (Pigeon Forge, TN, United States)
Stone House (GuimarĂ£es, Portugal)
National Theatre (Beijing, China)
Sculptured House (Colorado, United States)
I'm pretty sure I remember seeing this last one used in Woody Allen's incredible 1973 movie Sleeper.
Remember when I lived in Vienna for a few months? THAT'S WHERE I LIVED!!! Not in the upside down house (actually that building is an art museum and that was just part of an exhibition) but in the beige building just behind it to the right, those windows were mine looking out on the courtyard!
