Waiting for fun
What could be worse than missing your bus or train and having nothing to do but stand around stupidly fiddling with your phone? The architects at Kastelic Buffy have come up with a solution: the Story Pod, a stylish wooden house that opens up like a book and provides a place to sit and read. Unfortunately, to experience it you’ll have to go to Newmarket, Canada – a good 50 kilometers north of Toronto.

“While touring Europe, I visited my Hungarian ex-girlfriend’s father in Budapest who suggested I climb János-hegy hill for the best view of the city. Local tips really are the best!”
Rooms that sprawl into each other, delicate arches, doors and stairs that lead nowhere. The Spanish sculptor Xavier Corberó connected eight old buildings near Barcelona to form a single, maze-like house, and added extensions to create a brilliantly confusing masterpiece of stone, glass and concrete.
