The World's Ugliest Building.







I have posted the picture of this building a few months ago…I didn’t write anything about it as I was lost for words….what is there to write or tell except that it is the ugliest thing/object/insult/spaceship or whatever you might like to call it.

And it was until now that I found enough courage to lent inspiration to speak on it and tell about (my side of the story) what actually went through the mind of its creator – the ARCHITECT, himself. ……………………………[I am always RIGHT ] .

I love buildings …I always marveled at the Architectural Wonders of the World …I sees it as ART in the Purest Sciences…..the logic of space beyond creativity…a mind at play within the confine of engineering ……..the influences of humanity and the confluences of cultures……This is my WORLD of ARCHITECTURE.

What went through the small mind of this very person when he sat down to draft the blueprint of the said building...........What was his cultural encumbrances….…was it influenced by his distorted childhood…..and if so, was he traumatized.

Who taught him..….which Architectural school……was he a brilliant student…which school of thoughts…can he draw…was he good in math…what magazine he subscribe
….which made of car he drive ………is he tall…..is he short….. his sexual orientation..
…married…single......HE or SHE

There are more questions then answer…….and inconclusively, the questions are the answers.

I beg to differ…I am of the contention that this person is a Politician…Architect by training…..who in this world could come out with anything at all as ugly as this.

Allow me to explain…..a politician first had to come of with idea to mobilize a movement [to designate a design in this case].

To convincingly convince the people…..he has to first convince himself of the viability of the project [the beauty of the design in this case]….to sells his vision whole and sundry for the betterment of the society [to convince his commissioner of the Landmark marvel in this case].

Blinded by his own conviction…he blindly led and sold his idea of change and so we have a society of the blind leading the blind [the shareholders leading the landowner in this case] for all to see except the blinded themselves.

The said building is abandoned …so much can be said of most POLITICIANS.

What a great post! It is so well written and so true. I wonder about many of the directions taken. I guess for me these can be reminders...unneeded hopefully

Hi Robert,

Interesting and thought-provoking text as usual!

Your expression about the building: "thing/object/insult/spaceship or whatever" is very to-the-point. As your reflections show, the building represents so much more than a house and reflects policians' ideas.
