Architecture

Architect: Gunter Behnisch.

Built from 1998-2002.

Located in Hannover, Germany.

It is open to the public.

No info on how much it costed.

It was built as a bank which employs around 1,500 people. They started incorporating art into their building and they now have a public courtyard full of restaurants and art all open to the public.

I picked this building because it looks extremely new-age and futuristic. It's a bank, but also is filled with beautiful modern art and is full of families and people enjoying themselves in the courtyard. I would love to visit this building at some point in my life.

Architect: Javier Senosiain.

Built in 2006-2007.

Located in Mexico City, Mexico.

It is not open to public, it's a house for a family.

Couldn't find info on how much it costed. 

Javier Senosiain and his family grew tired of regular old houses. They wanted to incorporate nature into their new home and this specific one is inspired by a mollusk shell. 

I chose this building because I love the interior design. The house is spacious, well-lit, yet cozy at the same time. I also think the stained glass was a really nice touch, it gives the entire space a surreal feeling.

 Architect: Moshe Sadie

Built in 1967.

Built in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Costed around 22..2 million dollars.

It's not open to the public, you must be a resident of the complex.

Sadie was approached by her old advisor to help design the complex for the world fair in Montreal.

I chose this building because it his one of the most unique looking buildings I've ever come across, I've never seen complex's stacked up in this fashion.

Architect: Piet Plom

Started being build in 1963.

Located in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

You must be a resident of the household in order to view it. (not open to public).

Can't find any info on how much it costed.

These houses were built in order to house residents: they were going for something really unique.

I chose these houses because they are unlike anything I've seen before. They look almost unpractical to use as a living space. I was extremely surprised when I discovered these were designed in the 80's: they seem really modern.

Architect: Matti Suuronen

They were built in 1978.

Located in Sanzhi, Taiwan.

Yes: they are open to the public because they are abandoned. Although, they are haunted.

Can't find info on the cost.

These structures were originally purposed for tourists and soldiers as a vacation resort. Construction stopped shortly after it began because of a series of car accidents and a suicide at the location.

I chose these because they truly do look like UFO's. Their reputation fits the creepy look too. Construction on these houses stopped because the entire area was considered a ghost town. Builders destroyed a ceremonial dragon statue and unearthed an old Dutch burial ground, so it makes sense that it's haunted.
