Crazy Architecture

















An upside down house in Japan! The building is flipped, yet it still remains calm.

I stumbled upon this image saved on my laptop, and it's a "Drunk House" in Florida. Crazy architecture! I can't find extended info on the building, since I don't know the exact name, but I'm guessing it's mainly for tourists, by the extent of its whimsicality.

This is indeed a "Drunk House" but not in Florida. It's in a small touristic city -- Sopot by Polish shore.

This was meant to be an tourist attraction but I find it horrible.

It's shape was definitely inspired by Prague's "Drunk house"
