These 7 iconic buildings have been reconstructed in different architectural styles, such as The Louvre in Brutalist style pictured above. The effect is jarring to say the least...
Buckingham Palace in Bauhaus style:
Falling Water House in Classical style:
Museu de Arte Contemporânea de Niterói in Sustainable style:
CN Tower in Ancient Egyptian style:
Petronas Towers in Gothic style:
Sydney Opera House in Tudor style:
These reworked renderings were designed by NeoMam Studios for Expedia Canada.

Better than the original!
Well... it certainly completes what Pei started.
Sustainable style? There is nothing sustainable about that.
The opera house is good, they should consider it.
Fascinating exercise. They used to do this before modernism made style a dirty word. Having just returned from Paris, it's interesting to think how the light falling on the flat and rough textures of raw concrete would compare to what's there. Further, would this exercise be done in reverse, what would a classicized Boston City Hall look like. Would they spray it with decorations as they did with other examples, or would they recompose it intelligently.
