Here's one that was mentioned earlier but not posted, the ziggurats at the University of East Anglia. I've never been there myself, but I've heard plenty of stories mostly concerning the stairwells which are narrow, steep, entirely concrete, and a straight shot from the top floor to ground level meaning that if you tripped or slipped you were hosed. Which is of course a great idea for student accommodation  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  At least it has the best lecture theater on campus so there's that

I guess that's what it stands for but there isn't a mezzanine in the building at all, just a normal floor, which still makes it a weird choice
