EXPERIENCE MUSIC PROJECT, SEATTLE, WASHINGTON Avant-garde architect Frank Gehry knows that the Experience Music Project, a rock music museum, isn't exactly pleasing to the eye: "I look at a lot of buildings and consider them ugly. Most of them, in fact," he told The Seattle Times in 1999. Well, that's one way to talk about your life's work. The National Library of Belarus is the biggest library in the Republic of Belarus. The library is located in Minsk, the capital of Belarus. It houses the largest collection of Belarusian printed materials and the third largest collection of books in Russian behind the Russian State Library (Moscow) and the Russian National Library The library's main architectural component has the shape of a rhombicuboctahedron. The height of the building is 73.6 metres (241.5 feet) and weight is 115 000 tonnes

Aoyoma Technical College, Tokyo This Japanese university building has been likened to a Transformers character on more than one occasion. According to the university's website, the building consists of "essential architectural elements – posts, water tank, lightning rods, and joints of various kinds...It represents a new order, not achieved through simplistic control from above, but through tolerance of chaos." Yeah, there's chaos, alright. Former headquarters of The Longaberger Company, Ohio The Diamond Trump Tower
