18 Strangest Buildings, Picked by PopularMechanics

sourceHere, I found a list of The World's 18 Strangest Buildings, as chosen by PopularMechanics. Some of the buildings I thought are just ugly. Others, though, like the one pictured above, are so awesome and bizarre that it's hard to believe they're real.
Click on the link and tell us what you think of these buildings. Do you have a favorite?

We should build our buildings like that; be a wacked out cartoon like country
Those are all bizarre. And awesome.
Some of those are really interesting. I like the one pictured here. :)
Pretty cool.
Another cool building which I have personally visited was Wonder Works in Orlando. That place was awesome!

They have a bunch of cool stuff you can mess with in there. At one point that have this white wall and you can press a button. They countdown and then a white light starts flashing and your shadow is stuck on the wall! You move away and it stays there. And if you move around you can see your movements in the shadows that are stuck to the wall. Of course they start fading after 10 minutes or so but it was so cool.
Frank Gehry is one of my favorite architects. I especially love Habitat 67 after I learned about it in a design class one day.
I'd like to see a whole city with buildings like the one pictured above. I mean.. really.. it'd be great.
The Lotus Temple is beautiful. I'd like to go there.
the building in the pic is awesome ...i wanna live in a house like that :)
@MangoWOW@xanga - that is an awesome building! I can't believe you can even get inside there...
I've been to Rotterdam! That's a pretty crazy design.
Dang. Theres a school around here based off differnet shapes and stuff. Same with the middle school. But the high school is normal. Weird.
i love hundertwasser and my sis lives in darmstadt. i have been inside the waldspiralle and left my blood in it a few times - i;m very accident prone. it made my day to see this building here, at number one...and darmstadt too. i somehow feel at home there :D
the dancing building is beautiful too. pictures rly dont do it right. there's a kind of movement when u see it up close and personal.
Gosh there are some amazing places I wanna go and the list keeps getting longer! Thanks for this!
