Notre Dame

Jewish Museum in Berlin - apparently it's absolutely insane inside, the way the architecture makes you feel. I can't wait to visit it some day.

The Guggenheim Museum in NYC and Fallingwater in Pennsylvania, both designed by my favorite architect (Frank Lloyd Wright).

He's my favorite architect too, which is weird because I practice traditional architecture.

Awesome thread. Can't wait to see more.

 

[trappstar]

the Duomo in Milano. My favorite building ever.  I still remember the first time I walked up the stairs of the tram and was greeted with the most intricate, overwhelming facade I had ever seen. It's literally the heart beat of the town; everything gravitates to it. The building has taken over 400 years to construct. Generations of families have been working on it.  It's beautiful.  I'm gonna propose to my wife in front of this building.
