Jeffrey Pelletier turned the basement of his house into Lego heaven

Architect Jeffrey Pelletier turned the basement of his house in Seattle into Lego heaven, where we can find around 250 thousand different pieces of Lego bricks. Can you imagine having this as a kid? Anyway, Lego blocks marked the childhood of many children, including Pelletier's. Last but not least, it is their "fault" that he is an architect today. Unlike most architects, he not only visualizes his ideas in AutoCAD, but also builds them from Lego bricks. This was also the case with the house in which he lives and where the Lego basement is located.

Architects with a quirky sense of humor

Remember when, right before the Sochi Olympics, a photo of two side-by-side toilets without a partition wall circulated online? Toilets quickly became the target of ridicule and one can only wonder what was going through the minds of the architects. Is the culture in Russia so different from what we are used to? Well, as you'll see in the series of photos below, some of the other architects have a really weird sense of humor too.

Bizarre socialist architecture that still stands

Architecture from the mid-20th century has not stood the test of time. People didn't love her. This is especially true for ex-communist countries in Europe and Central Asia. The communist ideology, which flowed through all phases of life there, was imposed and consolidated through socialist architecture, among other things. This gave not only boring, but sometimes also extremely bizarre objects. Some of them are still standing 25 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Tesla with batteries that store solar energy and will change the course of history

Elon Musk, the father of the electric car brand Tesla, is not nicknamed the Steve Jobs of the automobile for nothing. He proved this once more when he introduced the Tesla Powerwall batteries, which have the ability to store solar energy. These would or will power homes, businesses, maybe even the entire world. By being able to store the energy of solar cells for later use, which until now has been the biggest obstacle in the use of renewable energy sources, they are changing not only the "producer" of electricity, but the very course of history.
