The Wall Slid Down Again

(Photo: Stephen O'Flaherty)

It's the architectural equivalent of the saggy pants fashion. Please get a belt. Your interior walls are showing.

Alex Chinneck, whose wonderfully surreal works we've featured previously, designed this facade for an abandoned building in Margate, UK. It looks like the front wall just slid down with the door and windows intact. He calls this sculpture "From the Knees of My Nose to the Belly of My Toes." You can view a video showing how it was built and more photos of the completed work here.

I would think that if you could dig a basement, you could make this building habitable right from the front door.
