My colleague Gaby Chaverria has pointed me, and now I point you, to "50 Strange Buildings of the World," brought to us by the folks at Village of Joy ("Amazing, Interesting, Wonderful, Weird, Odd and Funny things about our World").

Here are five of them, though to avoid going through permissions hassles the photos here are not necessarily the same as the ones on the website.  Just for fun:

"Crooked House," Sopot, Poland, photo here by aronski/Aron M.

Waldspiral, Darmstadt, Germany, photo here by YT/Lynne

Basket House, Licking County, Ohio, photo by addicted eyes/haRee

"Hole House," Houston, Texas, photo by melinnis

Erwin Wurm sculpture, "House Attack," at Museum Moderner Kunst, Vienna, photo by Dom Dada/dominik
