Ugly and strange architectural structures from different countries (17 photos)

9 October 2023

Architecture is science and art rolled into one. Consequently, this means that the creative ideas of these specialists may cause mixed impressions among people. And sometimes even outright laughter and Spanish shame. Some people may even like the buildings in this collection, but they are on the list of extremely strange and unattractive buildings that have already been discussed by the whole world. Let us evaluate them too.

National Fisheries Council, India





Zizkov TV Tower, Prague, Czech Republic



The building looks incredibly strange and surreal. And those children crawling up? They will drive anyone crazy!

Elephant Building, Bangkok, Thailand





This is one of the city's most popular attractions. It is assumed that the building was supposed to resemble an elephant. But the beast turned out to be somehow too unsightly and not particularly friendly.

CCTV Headquarters, Beijing, China



Port house in Antwerp, Belgium



De Rotterdam, Netherlands



Wright Tower, Louisville, Kentucky



Landmark Theatre, Devon, England



No, these are not nuclear reactors. This is what the roof of one of the most famous theaters in the city looks like.

Mirador Building, Madrid, Spain



Each of the blocks of the building differs not only in color, but also in the layout and type of apartments. The architects clearly did not restrain themselves in their fantasies during the construction of this masterpiece.

Selfridges building in Birmingham, UK



The building looks like something alien. Maybe it's a spaceship? Or a headquarters where galactic monsters gather?

Agbar Tower, Barcelona, Spain



Aoyama Technical College, Tokyo, Japan



Denver International Airport, Colorado, USA



Hotel Inntel in Zaandam, Netherlands



When erecting this building, the builders were clearly guided by the principle of “everything and more.”

Ryugyong Hotel, Pyongyang, North Korea



Aldar Headquarters Building, Abu Dhabi



This architectural project is based on the shapes of shells. It certainly seems like it. But, according to local residents, the beauty of this building still remains a big question.
