Inspired Architecture

It's always great when you come across a piece of quirky art, but when that art is transformed into a bigger scale such as architechture the mind boggles how someone had the balls to a) suggest it and then b) go ahead and make it.

Personally I love to see things like this, I think it livens up a city and what's better than stating the obvious of a company by making the entire building literally speak the words of 'it does what it says on the tin'.



The Basket Building, Ohio, USA.
The official HQ of the Longaberger Basket Company.



Kansas City Public Library, USA
The general public were asked to help pick the books that would go on the front of this building, based on not only content but appearance and more technical aspects such as binding.
