▏The Just Plain Strange Structures

From the now-defunct Longaberger basket company’s iconic Ohio headquarters to the distinctive Casa de Penedo — Portuguese for “boulder house” — the world has no shortage of quirky, fanciful, and just plain strange structures.

Forthcoming from Hoxton Mini Press with text by Imogen Fortes, Weird Buildings celebrates more than 100 norm-busting buildings ranging from the whimsical to the wildly engineered.

▏All the Buildings in this Book Push at the Boundaries of Convention

“Whether playful or provocative, all the buildings in this book push at the boundaries of convention,” the publisher says. “From the fluid forms of Zaha Hadid’s mountaintop museum to a whimsical teapot-shaped service station, this is a playful and inspiring tour of the world’s weirdest—and most wonderful—architecture.”

Weird Buildings will be published on October 7. Pre-order your copy in the Colossal Shop.

Point Supreme 翻新Peloponnese半島的一座石屋,打造現代家庭生活

Point Supreme 翻新 Peloponnese 半島的一座石屋,打造現代家庭生活

Point Supreme 在伯羅奔尼撒半島翻新一座傳統石屋,選擇以鮮明而克制的色彩作為介入手段,為老建築注入新的節奏與生命力。項目更傾向於適應性再利用,而非徹底替換;以直觀而精準的表達,取代宏大的姿態。建築師並未抹去歷史,而是在既有輪廓中層層疊加細緻而有力的干預,使現代家庭生活自然嵌入原有結構,增強空間,而非覆蓋其記憶。
