This week’s crazy building is the Eye Museum in Curitiba, Brazil. The “Eye Museum” is in fact the Oscar Niemeyer Museum, which earned its nickname due to the eye-catching design of its central tower.

High-Heel Wedding Church in Chiayi, Taiwan by Pilzland licensed under the terms of the CC BY-SA 4.0
This week’s crazy building is the High Heel Church in Chiayi, Taiwan. A church made of glass may conjure images of elegance and piety. A church made of a glass slipper? That’s another story.

This week’s crazy building is the Robot Building in Bangkok, Thailand. When the Bank of Asia asked architect Sumet Jumsai to create a building that shows banking has been modernized and computerized, Jumsai took them literally.

Niteroi Art Museum by Marcio Sette licensed under the terms of the CC BY-SA 3.0
This week’s crazy building is Niteroi Contemporary Art Museum in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. While its retro-futuristic design looks like something out of the ’60s, this museum, nicknamed the MAC, was actually completed in 1996. This strange-looking museum looks like an upside-down flying saucer. The main section of the building, the “cupola”, is three stories tall
