Unusual Buildings, Strange Architures

Wheelock Place

A favourite rendezvous for the fashionable and trendy, Wheelock Place is an architectural work of art









The Wilson Hall

This modernize building was built between 1971 and 1974. Its unique design gives the Wilson Hall a great sense of architecture, and a prominent landmark for the skyline. The building provides big laboratories, offices, and support space for over 1500 scientists. And it houses all kinds of strange experiments






Tokyo Sofitel

The traditional temples in Japan inspired the hotel's unique design. The Tokyo Sofitel has over 72 rooms, and 11 suites with 3 nonsmoking floors. There's also 5 meeting rooms that include super high-tech boardrooms







Robot Buidling

The great Bank of Asia is a famous building in Bangkok. It was built way back in 1985, and its robotic appearance is a symbol of banking in the modernize world.







Astra Haus

This strange building is an actual brewery in Hamburg, Germany. The floors can move up and down on its skinny column core. Unfortunately, they destroyed this unique building after a big refreshment corporation bought one of its more famous beer brands.






135 Degree Angle

This bizarre house doesn't have an official name, but it does have a 135 degree angle. So that's what we're going to call it. Unfortunately, the only info we have on this house is that China or Japan built it, and that it has a silly pink roof. And if you look real close, you'll notice that it's on a 135 degree damn angle.





Upside Down house

Take a journey into the unknown with a building called WonderWorks. It's central Florida’s only upside down attraction, and an amusement park for your mind. This odd building has over 100 wacky interactive displays for your entire family to experience. But make sure to free your mind before coming or it will explode.





Crooked House

The Crooked House, built in 2004, is an addition at a popular shopping center, and is a major tourist attraction in Sopot, Poland. We just wonder what happens when someone, who's under a controlled substance, sees this building for the first time in their life.










Dancing House

Here's a strange building that should get your attention when you walk pass it. The Dancing House is considered as one of the more real controversial and most talked about buildings in Prague.









Hydropolis

The world's first luxury underwater hotel, Currently under construction in Dubai. It will include three elements: the land station, where guests will be welcomed, the connecting tunnel, which will transport people by train to the main area of the hotel, and the 220 suites within the submarine leisure complex.

All buildings are really unique but unfortunately I have visited Robot building only. I have been to Bangkok couple of times. In last trip I saw Robot building I was completely amazed by its way of architecture. It is really a must visit Bangkok tourist destination but unfortunately not much popular. I would love to see upside down house and dancing house as well.
