I can’t help thinking how soon those trees will grow enough to seriously damage or destroy the building.

Police Center Operative Headquarters, 1979-1983
Belgrade, Serbia
Architect: Spasoje Krunic
*I find myself regretting that this ISN’T the Belgrade Police Headquarters
I find myself regretting that this thing is tethered to the ground, not airtight, and thus unable to lift off and dominate the galaxy.
Gurunsi architecture in Burkina Faso and Ghana
Neat as fuck
The phrase ‘wow’ comes to mind.
Just look at this landscape shot from within a canyon with galaxy and rock painting. Just look at it.
Going through an old binder of projects that I’d abandoned, I found this design doodle from 2007.
Back then I was living on a steep hillside in Spinach, and trying to figure out a distinctive, tasteful and low-prim house that didn’t demand either the complete flattening of the lot for a McMansion, or ignore the ground completely (i.e. a skybox.)
Back then, we didn’t have large prims, or sculpties, it was cut, slice, twist-n-torture.
This concept didn’t work out, and I ended up cantilevering Architect Homewood’s WAVE house.

Ah… the rounded rectangle house. I tried making one of these in Second Life years ago, but was put off by fiddly alignment and high prim costs. (The rectangle, itself, required 8 prims, and if the end wall was solid, that was 9 prims at least per wall.) You’d probably get better results these days with mesh.
Why does this look like a horror movie poster? The suspicious stains running down the hill from that window? The insectoid design crouched as if ready to spring? It’s isolated position on top of a crag?
Or maybe me remembering Demon Seed?
Unreal 2 level by Johan Sunnebjer. Lovely oldskool low-poly brutalism.
Every so often, a hiker or a backpacker will run across something puzzling: a ginormous concrete arrow, as much as seventy feet in length, just sitting in the middle of scrub-covered America. What are these giant arrows? Jeopardy champ Ken Jennings solves the mystery.
He’s lying of course. They’re actually direction indicators for the Supersonic Aluminum Nazi Hell Creatures From the Centre of the Hollow Earth when they finally emerge to destroy the civilised world (and America).
