Also, none of the windows line up, the walls are never straight and sometimes even the floor isn't.

He really didn't like straight lines and right angles.

The Hundertwasser Toilets is a public toilet located at 60 Gilles Street, the main street of the town Kawakawa on New Zealand's North Island. It is one of few toilet blocks seen as an international work of art and a tourist attraction in its own right.

This neat thing is also in the neighborhood


Maybe it's just me, but when I look at this I'm thinking "asbestos". Specifically the sprayed stuff that was used to coat steel beams etc.

"Sapporo Kingumu Dance Hall & Bar-currently closed."

They found out too late that even in Japan, serving freshly ripped-out human hearts is not OK.

I really dislike 432 Park Avenue.



It looks like the original WTC. But if the WTC was made of Lego, 432 Park is made of Duplo.

It looks more like it's made from these:

One I have had to put up with is the Architecture Building at the University of Lincoln:

Outside doesn't look too bad, but inside it makes pretty much every mistake you come to expect from a university architecture building. Maze of a floorplan, unnecessary empty space (including a walkway to nowhere), staircases that don't go all the way up or down, room numbering that doesn't follow any pattern, the big window at the front means it's boiling in summer and freezing in winter, and for some reason the floors go "G, M, 1, 2" instead of the usual "G, 1, 2, 3" you expect everywhere else in this country :psyduck:
