A Nico video focused on building fail, with the usual extremely puzzling examples of extreme architectural failure. Many defy easy explanation.

I can’t help but wonder what proportion of these are photoshopped, if any? Certainly some are perfectly plausible, but as for others…

It looks like MySims all over again... 'Cept in real life. o____o
Likely, most of these pics are from Russia. Very typical, I can see something like this virtually everyday.
All this are mostly results of reconstruction that is either under progress or stopped due to the lack of money
Buildings with trees in them do exist. It is often illegal to cut down the trees so they build their house around it instead.
In Russia, there are no handicaps! Only handichallenged who are strengthened by hearty structures that make them Big Strong!
I would say that most of these come from eastern europe,,where much of the buildings have been destroyed by war and rebuild using whatever they can find.
If these are real, did the designers even HEAR about architecture school?!
that's why they went to ART school instead ;3
videos wouldn't load, can youtube alternatives be posted instead?
some of these look like they filled in old doorways or were going to put a balcony or porch on, or filled in what used to be a hallway.
the one with the door at the top of the stairwell on the opposite side and the window misaligned with the arch are .. wtf
Nhis is Russia. Info 100%
Look this http://www.tema.ru/rrr/MAPA3M/
And this http://clubs.ya.ru/4611686018427388204/replies.xml?item_no=4149
you know that first pic makes perfect sense. Even Siamese twins need to be catered for. =P
Quite a lot are shoped, but some already see them
before and looks legit.
PS: Russian ones are likely to be true.
Sad but truth.
Anyone know the name of the song or the artist?
Artist: Afterlife, Title: Falling, Label: Hed Kandi Records, Album: Serve Chilled 2
Reminds me of Honeycomb Beat music.
Quoth the OP:
BGM→ Afterlife / Falling
The first pic reminds me of a friend who was doing architecture. She asked how close urinals are normally; she had to squeeze a certain amount of them within a room. I told her they would be waaay too close together, but she said "I have to fit them all in or I'll lose marks". I guess the person doing that fitout was in a similar situation...
heya tony :D
in my opinion, urinals being in the same room counts as way too close
It's not gay unless balls are touching
actually, I'm quite sure most of them are due to the lack of planning and during/before construction. Also, the parts where they have stairs and no entry way is probably just due to laziness.
At least a few of those stairs with no entryways look like the entry was removed at some point, and new wall put in place. The difference in colour (often lighter) is a tell tale there, and it's not uncommon for doors to be removed, particularly for security reasons (ie, in a shop, after enough people dive out a particular exit while shoplifting, someone proposes removing the problem exit entirely).
Some of them look like remodels.. but some of them, I literally have no idea what was going on there. The toilet at the top of the stairs.. O.o;;;? Seriously, WTF?
Are you talking bad about the holy trhone?
I actually rather liked the idea of peeing directly into urinal plants. I think that this fulfills a natural inclination. Kind of like blowing loads 2D depictions of flatties.
I notice a lot of Russian in this video.
Never cross the streams!
LOL this is great
Well 2:24 really makes you wonder...
Anyway, it seems folks don't seem to care about doors anymore do they (and windows for that matter)? Oh and the upside down house near the beginning was just plain silly....
By the way, I can't see the point of privacy at 3:32... the whole neighborhood can practically see your bank info......
5:29 was sweet though~
(omg quite ghetto heh? xD)
for someone who hav "db-penises"...
At around 1:34 you can clearly see a door has been filled in since the initial construction. Also I believe I've seen that bridge one around 4:44 on TV before.
I saw a real hidden camera on 1:43
It seems a few of those are formerly perfectly good, but something has been removed so now they seem pointless.
