Errante Guest House (Ciudad Abierta, Chile) This building looks like either what would happen if you 1) used a four-year-old's crayon rendering of a house as your blueprint or 2) chucked a perfectly good shotgun house off a cliff. But what we are actually looking at is an experimental building that existed in the late 1990s as part of the Catholic University of Valparaiso in Chile. The peculiar angles of the building were meant to deflect the wind shears to be utilized in temperature control.
4. Le Cube Orange (Lyon, France) In Lyon, France you will find a building that stands as testament to the very real danger of having a run-in with a trendy asteroid. This six-story showroom sports a gigantic gaping hole in its orange façade. However, this orange impact crater has some very green applications such as allowing natural light flow into the building and facilitating a natural flow of air throughout the structure.
5. Habitat 67 (Quebec, Canada) The Habitat 67 housing complex on the Saint Lawrence River in Quebec resembles a modular skyscraper made of giant Jenga pieces that toppled over. The complex was a product of architect Moshe Safdie for the Expo 67 world's fair in Canada, but the multiple platforms seems like it was specifically designed for that distinctively new millennium sport of free running.
