I love those crazy post modern houses that look out of this
world, weird windows and stairs everywhere, etc... famous
artists who are ''cool'' always have them!

But I love castles and things like that, old cathedrals,
etc... anything gothic drives me crazy. I don't know shit
about architecture or individual architects, but I know what
I like...

As you are into architecture in a big way - I've emailed you
a pic of a wonderful building that I have the pleasure of
working in for some of the week. They don't make them like
they used to in my town!

almost anything art nouveau or art deco, baroque type stuff
is fun too

minimal/modern stuff can look good, but i'm just tired of
seeing people pass of shitty industrial design as modern or
something.

If anyone here has heard or seen that Windchester Castle or
House, that has to the THE scariest most disturbing house
ever. Stairs leading to doors on the side of the house,
stairs that go up only to be blocked off, balchony's you
can't get to. Freaky to the maxium.

combination of both is ideal for me.

warsaw trade tower - warsaw
fischer building - detroit
michigan central station - detroit
