Architecture Preview

La Pedrera, Spain

Designed by Antoni Gaudí
Built from 1906-1912
Located in Barcelona, Spain
Public building
Antoni's last civil work
I chose this building because it has a very unique design. I really like the strange shape and adobe look. It looks like something out of a Dr. Seuss movie with a very cartoonish look.

Habitat 67, Canada

Located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada
Private apartments
Pavilion for the World Expo in 1967
I chose this Building because it is very strange structure. I really like the modern abstract design and neutral colors. This is the kind of apartment I would want to live in.

Krzywy Domek, Poland

I chose this building because it is very unique and strange. It looks like you're looking through a kaleidoscope or something. The structure doesnt look like real its so distorted.
