World's Craziest Building

 Many architects have created countless man-made structures and large buildings that not only amaze visitors but also have gone beyond the boundaries of nature. There are numerous incredible buildings in the world that are known for their far-out shapes, awe-inspiring designs, and unique styles.

 Cybertecture Egg Office Building, India



The Cybertecture Egg is a 13-story commercial building located in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. Architect James Law designed the Cybertecture Egg along with Ove Arup's building systems and engineering firm.The building was designed with sustainability in mind and has 33,000 sqm of office space, an elevated garden, and three levels of basement with 400 parking spaces, all in about 15% less space than a traditional office building.

Wing Shape Zayed National Museum, United Arab Emirates



 It is designed as a memorial to the late Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the founding father and first president of the UAE
The museum has been designed by Foster + Partners with five solar thermal towers that will act as chimneys to draw cool air through the building.The towers are shaped like falcon wings to commemorate Zayed's love of falconry.
The museum is currently under construction and is expected to open in 2021.

Basket Building, USA



The seven-story, basket-shaped building in east Newark, Ohio once the main office of the now-defunct Longaberger Company was offering its first public tour since closing in 2016.Longaberger Company is an American manufacturer and distributor of handcrafted maple wood baskets and other home and lifestyle products. Its old corporate headquarters on Ohio's State Route 16 is a local landmark and a well-known example of novelty architecture, since it takes the shape of the company's biggest seller, the "Medium Market Basket".As of January 2021, the building was on the market for $6.5 million after a planned hotel project fell through due to the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

Earth House, Switzerland



Peter Vetsch has run his own architecture office in Dietikon, Switzerland since 1978.
Vetsch has built over 47 earth houses in Switzerland and around the world, and also a number of conventional houses. Vetsch’s Earth houses represent his conception of an environmentally conscious, ecological and progressive architecture.
Using sprayed concrete construction, he creates building shells which encompass maximum space with a minimum of surface area, reducing the energy needed for heating. These constructions eschew right angles, and their spatial diversity overcomes the monotony of traditional designs. They recall Antoni Gaudí's organic forms as well as Jugendstil architecture.
Recently, Vetsch has been linked to designs for a series of Eco Theatres to be built in London's planned Olympic Park in time for London 2012.
