Before you are architectural examples that will leave you speechless! Humans have really amazing imaginations!

Every society has its own unique relationship to the natural world, and architecture usually reflects this. It thus enables people from other parts of the world to get to know their environment, as well as history, rituals, understanding of art and many other aspects of everyday life.

However, architecture is always better seen than described. Allow us to introduce you to the group "the beautiful impossibilities that we want to live in" from Reddit, dedicated to high-quality photos of some of the world's most awe-inspiring (conceptual) buildings. This online community already has over 617,000 members and the photos they share are amazing. Keep scrolling to check them out!
