A Big Collection of Architectural Failures

I wanted to believe the house you see above is a Photoshop job. No, it is an actual house in Nigeria. Two floors, three facades, five colors, and what's going on with the columns? Putting them on the corners would be sensible, but they couldn't even center them together in the middle.

While the images are called architectural fails, it's pretty obvious that no trained architect was involved at all. Professionals go to school to learn how not to end up with stairs like this. It's the exact reason why my daughter's kitchen has one cabinet that's just a dummy door, to provide headroom for the staircase below it. Bored Panda has a list of 50 such weird building results, some the result of bad planning from the start, and many of which are the result of modifying a structure without paying a penny more than they had to.
