There's a place in Majorca called the 'House of Katmandu'. On the outside it looks like an upside-down 'Tibetan' house.

I liked the building with the books, they should build Central Library like that, instead of the ugly thing they've designed :X

There are many strange and unique building in the world. But I think the most stupid idea is build a transparent balcony.
There is a photo studio in my city that has large transparent balcony over the parking area. It's seem like unique. But I began to realize that is stupid when I stood under this transparent balcony, look above, and saw a girl wore skirt walked on it.
