Kunsthaus Graz, Austria 1. Peter Cook 2. 2003 3. It is located in Graz, Austria 4. You can visit it 5. It cost $50 million to build 6. It was built as part of Capital of Culture celebrations in 2003 7. When I saw the photo for this building,m it really captured my eye because it just looked like an organelle or a blob made of jello or something. The fact that this was made as an actual place is really interesting. Krzywy Domek (The Crooked House), Poland 1.   Szotyńscy & Zaleski 2. 2004 3. Located in Sopot, Poland 4. You can visit it 5. No info on cost 6. It was built in inspiration of  Jan Marcin Szancer  and  Per Dahlberg  fairytale drawings 7. I picked this place because when I looked at the picture, it looked very twisted and illusion like. Then I started to think "how did they make everything on the inside right side up, but the whole exterior crooked?" I got really interested in how it was built so I chose it. Burj Al Arab, Dubai, UAE 1. Tom Wright

Warm up 1. I like this statement because it is true to what is going on in the world. I agree with this statement because we as a group of people who DO define their area about what they buy and things while we need to be looking at the landscape and the creativity around us. This really makes me want to go out and look loser at the building and photograph architecture differently than I have ever before. 2. The photos were interesting and yes I would like to photograph some of it, but other parts of the city seem a bit too much color and pop for my taste. 3.If my parents worked a place  like this, I would probably feel like I was in Candy Land or a fantasy land 24/7 with all the colors, toys, and dolls. 4. My favorite photo is the one with the mom and her daughter in a store surrounded by plates and china ware. Photo 1 Photo 2 Photo 3 Photo 4
