I have no idea how I started looking at these architecture pictures but once I started I couldn't stop checking out different sites. It all started when I saw this awesome bookcase stairwell on Kanye's blog.

I thought this house was amazing. Though I have no idea why they needed to build up off the ground like that.

There has been a lot of new construction using old steel shipping crates. I'm told this is because the cost to to return them to their original destination far exceeds their worth. This mach-up hotel is called The 10 Year Hotel. It was a project by Lee Ferguson.



And, lastly a sketch of the Beijing Water Cube for the 2008 Olympics. It totally reminds me of blitzball from FFX.
