What kind of buildings do you like?
I've just seen a picture of Bucharest Architects' Association and I thought it was marvellous:
I like this whole post-modern ancient kind of style, which reminds me also of the Vancouver Public Library, as it looks like a 21th century Colosseum:
I also like the cathedral of the city I live in, for it looks like a crown of bananas :D
How about you? |

we had an art show at one of our museums here and the show was cars hanging from the ceiling the description "this will SHATTER your idea of what an art show SHOULD be"
artists get a little full of themselves sometimes.

That's gorgeous! I've always been fascinated by architecture, I wanted to study that in school but after I found out how much math was involved I changed my mind :p |

Still looking for good ones, but this reminded me of some in Chicago that I loathe:
That last one is especially hideous--looks like some horrible futuristic sci-fi pod-like rip-off. |
