10 most strange and crazy houses in the world

No matter how convenient and practical urban high-rise buildings are, they are all boring and lack personality. In some cases, modern residential buildings can even be called pretty, but their appearance certainly does not take their breath away. Another thing is the following ten houses. Their authors were real madmen with a truly amazing flight of imagination, because they created not so that these living quarters were affordable and understandable to a simple layman, but in order to pour out their souls in the building and reflect their mood!

Forest spiral. Darmstadt, Germany

The author of this 12-story house in the form of a giant snail is the Austrian architect Friedensreich Hundertwasser. In 105 apartments there is not a single corner, and even two identical windows cannot be found here, and trees grow on the roof.

Crooked house. Sopot, Poland

In this amazing "floating" building, there is a shopping and office center, and two architects - Shotinsky and Zalevsky designed it about 10 years ago.

Stone house. Guimaraes, Portugal

At first glance, this unusual house can be confused with an ordinary boulder, but inside it is perfectly equipped for a comfortable life.

The Hobbit House. Lammas, Wales

The author of this house claims that his dwelling has nothing to do with Tolkien's work, and calls it the "forest house".

Atomium Brussels, Belgium

This striking design was built by Andre Waterkane in 1958 for the World Exhibition and is considered a symbol of Brussels. The "crystal lattice" consists of 9 spheres with a diameter of 18 meters. There are pavilions arranged inside the balls, and in the uppermost of them, at a height of 102 meters, a luxurious restaurant is located.

Nautilus. Naucalpan de Juarez, Mexico

All the rooms of this unique house, which looks like a huge shell, smoothly flow into each other, forming almost a single space. In 2006, it was designed by Javier Senosian.

The ideal palace of the postman Cheval. Oterrive, France

This magnificent palace was built by the most ordinary postman, collecting cute pebbles during movements associated with work. Ferdinan Cheval spent 33 years creating this beauty.

Cubic houses. Rotterdam, Netherlands

The author of these bizarre living quarters is Pete Blom. Each of the blocks is a separate apartment with an area of about a hundred square meters. But due to the special slope of the walls, the usable area in such an apartment is much smaller.

Inverted house. Orlando, USA

In fact, this is the building of the Wonderworks Museum, where children are introduced to the laws of chemistry, physics and other amazing phenomena. The children are told the legend that this house was originally located in the Bermuda Triangle, but after a not too successful experiment to create a tornado, it was moved here with a whirlwind.

Casa Batlló. Barcelona, Spain

One of the most impressive and beautiful houses in the world is the creation of the Spanish architectural genius Antonio Gaudi. This stunning, surreal building is considered a symbol of Barcelona.
