Want to pass? Weight loss required
Want me to go with you? Sorry, I have to begin a new diet... I'll be back here in about two weeks ok?
The building that payed the toll...
That's right, it looks like those buildings payed the tool and have the right to use that giant 8-lane highway! But the truth is quite simple. The architect somehow "forgot" that there was a planned highway in the exact same place of the residential blocks he designed... Where's the location of this mega FAIL?! China of course...
Many thanks to Architect Andreia Silva for this brilliant suggestion.

The Oikema, a house of pleasure...
And now we give you a historical insight about the French Utopian architect Claude Nicolas-Ledaux. Once upon a time he drawn a master-plan for the ideal city of Chaux. Among several interesting building designs, this is by far our favorite! A "house for pleasure" or, like the author said, a "house for sexual instruction"... Whatever...
Oh Paris, such a lovely... wait, what?!
Oh yes, they've done it again! China's copycat factory is on fire! Behold Chinese Paris! Perhaps you can eat "escargĂ´t" with chopsticks...

Quite obvious...
Fortunately, this architect was not invited to design a toilets factory

Not a good idea...
There was a time when someone thought that this would be a good ideia...

The Rocket Church
Ups, he did it again! Another strange-shaped church in construction not very far from that caravel of our last post, made by the same architect! Is this divine inspiration? God works in mysterious ways that's for sure...
Thanks to Marco Oliveira for the suggestion.

The caravel-shaped church
...and now, the model!
"We need to build a church near the site where Portuguese sailors used to set sail to conquer the New World, back in 15th century!"
Anything better than a caravel-shaped church?!...

Venice Made in China
Chinese copycats are seen everywhere. They have fake iPhones, fake cars, fake clothing and... fake cities. Behold the Chinese Venice! Gondola rides included...
Looking for the temple of doom?
We bet there is some strange ritual going on inside that includes eating the brains of some live monkeys...

Upside down is so cool! NOT!!!
This is a high voltage to low voltage transformer station in Azores, Portugal... Someone actually thought this would look cool! Well, it doesn't...

There's a gecko trying to get inside!
Haven't you noticed that there's a gecko climbing your wall? Kill it now!

Truly classical inspiration
Take a good look at this building. Now try to find the words to describe it. You can't? We neither...

Some stairs...
We're still trying to understand how is this possible?! What was on the bullshitect's mind to allow something like this?! Oh wait, we know... there was nothing on his mind, not even a sign of a brain...
