I absolutely love the building next to the water. If I were going to work somewhere, it would definitely be a place like that. That would be a nifty place to be every day, would make me like my job more. haha

Haha, that building is pretty cool. It's actually right next to this one (I think I shared it earlier in another post):

And okay that last building is super cute. Is it a home or place of business?

ETA: I totes saw what you did there. I didn't go unnoticed.

I think it's a home / design project for one my professors lol. It's in a very remote city that's also like a popular artist destination =) Here's s'more shots:

I didn't do nothin'

Is that first building actually sitting in water or next to it? That's pretty neat!

I love those mini homes they're so cute. Up in the mountains of NC there is actually a tiny homes neighborhood, all the homes are like 800sqft and smaller.

Totes did.

Yeah, it's sitting in a shallow reflecting pool, which is a really interesting design concept. =) I believe it's meant to give the impression that the building is floating.

lol, I wonder what it's like to live in a house like that.



not uh

Okay so I went on pinterest and found some of these designs:

I got distracted and found this also:

I thought it was pretty epic looking.

It.. would be small. I'll post a few tiny houses in my other thread.







mmhmm

That is pretty epic lol, I love how the first building looks like it's almost rising out of the water.

I also love buildings that are fused with the landscape like that last one, so cool

okay you win :'(

I agree! Although I was kind of surprised on how hard it was to find buildings I was looking for.

Those designs are really cool! That last one reminds me of a tower that was designed to pull drinkable water from the air via solar power and condensation. I couldn't find the building to post, but there's been a lot of advancements with that technology I'm sure. =)

Oh that's awesome!

The building kind of looks like it can move back and forth (the middle part) but I'm sure it can't...

I really like these old bridges. They are disappearing one by one though.

Here in town, scheduled to be demolished and replaced soon

Aww I hate that it's going to be demolished. That one is beautiful!

I really like that second photo but it gives me a bit of the vertigo.

Aren't you able to ride that last one like an elevator? Doesn't it have a restaurant or is that somewhere else I'm thinking of?
