Architecture at Odds

by FH2o on March 3, 2006

“Bonus” Friday post.

After 2 consecutive postings over the past days that may rack some brains; I’m switching back to “easy listening” mode with this easy on the brain as well as eyes (although you may have to do a double take, sorry!) post. *sigh*

Here are some pictures sent to me by my dear old retired friend in Perth who is living out a retirement life that most of us can only dream about - what with alaskan cruises, china and european tours, but to name a few; making me “law ngiau” (salivate) here in my demanding dog-eat-dog working life with his mouth-watering holidays pictures taken with his lovely second wife … (I’ll stop here!)

Since Boon Keat is an engineer, is he trying to insinuate something here by sending me these interestingly different architecture that the architect or owner is ‘cuckoo’? Whatever; but this makes for an appropriate friday post; so which would you choose to live in? If you want to give your architect a headache or heart-attack (take your pick), show and tell him that you want one of these!

And do try to have a different and interesting weekend, will ya’!

goodness gracious !!
Unker, are these houses for real ??? Not fake one ah???
Some of them seemed “engineeringly impossible” to me….

robin wong - as far as i can ascertain; these are real-life buildings! Not photoshop-ed!

The ‘melted’ building is quite amazing!
Human ingenuity (and madness) knows no bounds!
