The Snail House

Probably one of the most stupid ideas for a house design... but also, one of the coolest ones.
Dont you think?

The fish building...

The Indian National Fisheries Development Board needed a new building for their offices. The architect presented them a fish building (Fisheries - Fish! Obvious!). And then, when you think that nothing can get worse...

...here comes the final result!

That giant chicken...

Sorry, my giant chicken laid eggs in your building...

King Kong knocked down the Empire State!

If you take a closer look at the sign, it says: "Ripley's Believe it or not! Museum" and believe it or not, this IS in fact a Museum!

[Ripley's Believe it or not! This is a Museum, Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada] 

Those tiny details...

Those tiny details...

That Motel sign...

The right-to-the-point sign! The REAL purpose of Motels...

The Robot Building

Wall-E, we found your soul mate!

[Robot  Building, Bangkok, 1986 by architect Sumet Jumsai]

Some men just want to see the world burn...

Oh lord...

The Earthquake Building

Is a shame that this "Earthquake Building" is not even more realistic.
I'd love to see it as a simple pile of rubble

The floating desert island!

The same group that brought us the Monaco-Shaped yacht, now presents the Floating Desert Island! Some billionaire eccentric with doubtful exquisite taste will have the opportunity to get lost at sea in his/her own $250M  private island! How stupid is that?

Who wants to be an Architect?

The Satellite Dish

A building with the strange dream of becoming one of the radio telescopes in the Very Large Array, New Mexico...

What a f*ck is that?

This building seems to have been demolished already... What a f*ck is that?

The Strawberry Buildings Collection

Porto Alegre, Brazil

Denenchofu, Tokyo, Japan

Rockingham, North Carolina, U.S.A.

Bundaberg, Australia

For some strange reason, it seems that a lot of bullshitects think that designing Strawberry-shaped buildings is a cool ideia. 

The hotel of Doom!

Today we present North Korea's pride and joy, the Ryugyong Hotel, also known as "The Hotel of Doom!" We dare you to find an uglier building than this one!  

(We would also love to know what was that lady thinking at that moment, because it looks like she's about to puke!) 

The Shoe Building

This Shoe Building was built in 1948 by Mahlon N. Haines, who was the owner of a local shoe empire...obviously!

Screw this... Now I'm an elephant!

I'm tired of being a building... now I'm an elephant! I'm going to Kenya...

[Chang Building, Bangkok, Thailand, 1997 - Architect Sumet Jumsai] 

The Phallic Rocket

Here's a concept design to a "floating" tower in Dubai.
We can't understand why it has to be so ridiculous and ugly... we whish this kind of "Phallic Rocket" just take of to the outer space.

That big and hard... Washington Monument!

The interaction between architecture and it's users is not always the most obvious... Here's an interesting set of pics to explain that.

Portuguese Architects Association card have a hidden surprise...

It looks like the personal card from the Portuguese Architects Association is not so personal at all. They have a hidden surprise waiting for you to find out! In a previous life, some of  these cards were from Investment Banks, Hotels, Shopping Centers, etc...
Portuguese Architects Association take the 3-R Policy very seriously! ;)
