Surroundings

I think this picture falls under the catagory of  surroundings because as you can see it is located around a road (the moving car lights). As you can see cars drive around it.

Angles and shapes

This building falls under the catagory of angles and shape because of the artitechture of the walls. There is also a little patern from the windows but the walls of the building such as the roof, have somewhat a triangular shape.

Patterns

This building falls under the catagory of patterns because of the windows. The windows repeat themselves all the way down, because if it wasn't all square windows then it would of showed the whole building.

Surroundings

This building falls under surroundings because you can see where it is located. It is surrounded by other similar buildings according to its structure.

Surroundings

This building falls under the catagory of surroundings because of the background. You can see that the building is surrounding by nature. And it could also be pattern because of how the building is structured.

1. Who is the architect (the person who built it)?

Antonio Gaudi

2. When was it built?

1906-1910

3. Where is it located?

Barcelona, Spain

4. Is it a private building or can you visit it?

The apartment on the top floor is now a permanent exhibition space and has been furnished in furniture and objects from the period and provides a look at what the residents might have owned. The other unites are still private residences. Higher up inside the building in the attic is a small museum/exhibition space devoted to Gaudi's work called the Espai Gaudi.

5. Is there information on how much it cost to build?

No.

6. Is there a reason the building was created or the history of the building itself?

Along Passeig de Gracia, in the ultrafashionable Quadrat d'Or neighborhood of Barcelona stands one of the most unusual examples of the city's architecture -  or anywhere else in the world.

7. Why did you pick this building? (write at least a paragraph on this question)

Because it looks really cool and it looks somewhat like Spain. Also it used to be an apartment place. Also because it's in Barcelona, Spain! :)

1. Who is the architect (the person who built it)?

It was dreamed up by the engineer André Waterkeyn (1917-2005). The spheres, though, were fitted out by the architects André and Jean Polak.

2. When was it built?

1958

3. Where is it located?

Brussels, Belgium

4. Is it a private building or can you visit it?

People can visit it. Landmarks/ Points of Interest, Lookouts, Museums.

5. Is there information on how much it cost to build?

No.

6. Is there a reason the building was created or the history of the building itself?

One of the original ideas for Expo '58 was to build an upside-down version of the Eiffel tower; however, Waterkeyn felt that an atomic structure would be more symbolic of the era. The monument was originally planned to stand there for six months. However, it became a symbol not only of the World's Fair, but of modern architecture and the city of Brussels and of Belgium. It received monument status and stayed on the former exhibition grounds for over 50 years. It is now one of Brussels' main attractions.

7. Why did you pick this building? (write at least a paragraph on this question)

I chose this building because it seemed really interesting. I've never seen it before and would like to see in it. But as I read, people said that it wasn't worth it from the view inside. So maybe when I travel I'll go take a look and waste money.

Guggenheim Museum, Spain

1. Who is the architect (the person who built it)?

Architect Philip Johnson called it "the greatest building of our time". The museum's design and construction serve as an object lesson in Gehry's style and method.

2. When was it built?

It was opened to the public in 1997.

3. Where is it located?

Bilbao, Basque Country, Spain. Alongside the Nervion River.

4. Is it a private building or can you visit it?

The museum features permanent and visiting exhibits of works by Spanish and international artists.

5. Is there information on how much it cost to build?

The building was constructed on time and budget, which is rare for architecture of this type. In an interview in Harvard Design Magazine, Gehry explained how he did it. First, he ensured that what he calls the "organization of the artist" prevailed during construction, in order to prevent political and business interests from interfering with the design. Second, he made sure he had a detailed and realistic cost estimate before proceeding. Third, he used CATIA and close collaboration with the individual building trades to control costs during construction.

6. Is there a reason the building was created or the history of the building itself?

One of the most admired works of contemporary architecture, the building has been hailed as a "single moment in the architectural culture" because it represents "one of those rare moments when critics, academics, and the general public were all completely united about something." The museum was the building most frequently named as one of the most important works completed since 1980 in the 2010 World Architecture Survey among architecture experts.

7. Why did you pick this building? (write at least a paragraph on this question)

I chose this building because it seemed like a pretty cool. I've never seen buildings like this so it's new to me and catches my attention. Makes me want to visit it. Also the way it's built. How its in water and it's curves makes it interesting to go see in real life. The shapes are different and arn't all the same.

The Ufo House, Taiwan

1. Who is the architect (the person who built it)?

I don't know.

2. When was it built?

Construction of the UFOs began in 1978. Demolition work began on Dec. 29.

Taipei County Public Works Bureau Director Lee Shu-chuan said that construction work on the compound was never finished and the site has been abandoned for nearly 30 years.

5. Is there information on how much it cost to build?

Doesn't say.

6. Is there a reason the building was created or the history of the building itself?

They eventually made a deal with the group and decided to tear it down. Hung Kuo and the Taipei County Government will work together to rebuild the site, including the beach front, into a scenic attraction and maybe a resort for tourists.

7. Why did you pick this building? (write at least a paragraph on this question)

I picked this building because it looked cool and interesting. I guess since like UFO's. I don't know.. aliens? It would of been cool to see these buildings. Although they dont really look like UFOs. But I think it's very rare. Rare but interesting.

Habitat 67, Canada

1. Who is the architect (the person who built it)?

 Its design was created by architect Moshe Safdie based on his master's thesis at McGill University and built as part of Expo 67.

2. When was it built?

3. Where is it located?

Located on the Marc-Drouin Quay on the Saint Lawrence River at 2600, Pierre Dupuy Avenue in Montreal, Quebec, Canada

4. Is it a private building or can you visit it?

The project was designed to create affordable housing with close but private quarters, each equipped with a garden. The building was believed to illustrate the new lifestyle people would live in increasingly crowded cities around the world. The complex was originally meant to be vastly larger. Due to its architectural cachet, demand for the building's units has made them more expensive than originally envisioned.

5. Is there information on how much it cost to build?

The building is owned by its tenants, who formed a limited partnership that purchased the building from the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation in 1985.

6. Is there a reason the building was created or the history of the building itself?

7. Why did you pick this building? (write at least a paragraph on this question)

I picked this bulding because it looked like if military would use it. Looks siriouse? It's a pretty cool building. Reminds me of Mario or something like that. Pretty cool building! I like it.
