Reminds me of the curious Gaudi structures we saw in Spain . . . I do like the verse, shaped to our idiosyncrasies . . .

yes – it appears the Polish designer and Gaudi drank from the same well

Very telling gibe. This architecture is literally and figuratively nothing but a gag.

Ah, I saw it with my own eyes during a class trip. In my city (Zielona Góra, Poland) there’s also a hotel called “Krzywe Okna” (crooked windows) https://edge.media.datahc.com/HI409450726.jpg
Sometimes I imagine how they came up with an idea to create such building ~
Architect: “Ok boss, what building do you want me to design”
Boss: “Have you ever drank vodka?”
Architect: “Say no more”
I’m also a little bit sorry for people living near this building ~ you come back from a party, and you are not sure if you are really drunk, or just an architect tries to troll you. 🙂

LOL! Perhaps its architect lingered too long and often over a fine bottle (or two) of his favorite alcoholic beverage!
