Conçu par l'architecte américain Yann Weimouth (qui fut l'assistant de I.M. Pei pour la Pyramide du musée du Louvre à Paris), le musée Salvador Dali combine le rationnel et le fantastique. Il est constitué d'un rectangle simple d'où surgit une forme ronde, libre, constituée de triangles de verre qui rappelle le dôme du musée de Dali en Espagne. À l'intérieur se trouve un excentrique et audacieux escalier en spirale, rappellant l'obsession de Dali pour les spirales et les formes hélicoïdales de la molécule de l'ADN …
Staircase of the Salvador Dali Museum: museum dedicated to the painter Salvador Dalí located on the campus of the University of South Florida in St. Petersburg (Florida).
Designed by the American architect Yann Weimouth (who was I.M. Pei's assistant for the Pyramid of the Louvre Museum in Paris), the Salvador Dali Museum combines the rational and the fantastic. It consists of a simple rectangle from which emerges a round shape, free, consisting of triangles of glass reminiscent of the dome of the museum of Dali in Spain. Inside is an eccentric and bold spiral staircase, reminiscent of Dali's obsession with the spirals and helical shapes of the DNA molecule …
No matter what type or size of bed she's lying in, Tidda will usually end up hanging over the side like this sooner or later! It's her signature sleeping position that she seems to like best!
Edensor (pronounced ‘Enzer’) is a small but pretty village situated within the grounds of the Chatsworth House estate in the Peak District National Park.
The original village was recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086, at which time it was located along the River Derwent, where the buildings were visible from Chatsworth House. This view displeased the then Duke of Devonshire, William Cavendish, however, and between 1838 and 1842 the entire village was dismantled. Many of the residents were moved to the nearby Chatsworth villages of Beeley and Pilsley, and the planning and building of a new village, over the brow of a hill and out of sight of Chatsworth House, was managed by the famed architect Sir Joseph Paxton.
Only one of the houses, Park Cottage, was allowed to remain in its original position, reputedly because its elderly tenant at the time did not want to move and the Duke took pity on him.
The village is made up of a charming, slightly eccentric mixture of different house styles, from Tudor to Norman, with Swiss-style cottages and Italian-style villas. Rumour has it that the architect who worked with Paxton to produce the designs for the houses, John Robertson, presented the Duke with a selection of house styles to choose from at a time when he was particularly busy, and the Duke – rather distractedly – chose ‘one of each’.
The original church of St Peter’s dated back to the 12th Century. However, in the mid-19th Century it was rebuilt and expanded for the 7th Duke of Devonshire, and its beautiful spire now dominates the skyline. The churchyard contains a number of graves of the Chatsworth’s Cavendish family, including a memorial to Kathleen Kennedy, sister of the former US president John F Kennedy, who was the wife of William Cavendish, Marquess of Hartington. The churchyard also contains the grave of Sir Joseph Paxton, the famous architect of the Crystal Palace in London.

'...what can be learned from the sea? mountains provide self confidence, forest illusion of peace - and the sea? What can be found on the sea? Longing, at most. And the wind....' ― Eccentrics | W. Kowalewski
This is a take off the Infinity Room at the House on the Rock near Spring Green,WI.The popular attraction opened in 1960 to spite architect Frank Lloyd Wright who was not impressed with HOTR creator Alex Jordan's work.Jordan kept filling the place with artifacts and creations that it now takes $30 and 3+ hours to go through.I had not been there since the early '80s-the Infinity Room and the Heritage of the Sea had been added since then and were both interesting.It is a 3 hours unlike you have ever experienced before with the actual house the LEAST interesting part of the tour...
An interesting take of the place here...
Eccentricity is the degree to which two forms fail to share a common center. In mechanical engineering, an eccentric is a circular disk solidly fixed to a rotating axle with its center offset from that of the axle (hence the word "eccentric", out of the center).
It is used most often in steam engines and used to convert rotary motion into linear reciprocating motion to drive a sliding valve or pump ram.
(This eccentric is on an operating model of a steam tractor.)

Out for a walk around Granville Island and out pops this little gem. Right place, right time and a tiny puff of a cloud appears above one of the many unique structures to be found on Granville Island, BC. This is actually among the many gallery's to be found and demonstrates an eccentric style onto its own. All the primary colors are in bloom in this one and serve to support the creative look to both the building and the surrounding area.
Der Alte Elbtunnel in Hamburg.
Ein riesiges Kuppeldach, drei imposante Steinportale mit Pfeilern und Giebeln: Auf den ersten Blick erinnert der Rundbau an den St. Pauli Landungsbrücken an ein Bauwerk der Antike. Doch in dem Gebäude an der Elbe verbirgt sich weder Tempel noch Kirche. Es bildet den Zugang zu einem Meisterwerk der Ingenieurbaukunst - dem Alten Elbtunnel. Zwei Treppen mit je 132 Stufen, vier hydraulisch betriebene Fahrkabinen für Fahrzeuge und zwei kleine Personenaufzüge führen 24 Meter in die Tiefe. Dort befindet sich der Eingang zu zwei hell gekachelten Röhren. Sie führen 426,5 Meter unter dem Wasser entlang nach Steinwerder auf die andere Elbseite.

The Old Elbe Tunnel in Hamburg.
A huge dome roof, three imposing stone portals with pillars and gables: At first glance, the round building on the St. Pauli Landungsbrücken is reminiscent of an ancient building. But there is no temple or church in the building on the Elbe. It provides access to a masterpiece of engineering architecture - the Old Elbe Tunnel. Two staircases with 132 steps each, four hydraulically operated cabs for vehicles and two small passenger elevators lead 24 metres into the depth. There is the entrance to two brightly tiled tubes. They lead 426. 5 metres under the water to Steinwerder on the other side of the Elbe. Taken during the HH-Flickr-Meeting in may, 2018.

Z’otz* Collective: Eccentric Coincidence
Inspired by the AGB’s architectural space and the cast of characters who wander these halls, Z’otz* have introduced a new eccentric troupe of creatures onto the scene with their expansive mural installation. The artist collective works spontaneously and intuitively, using mixed media and clay to explore their subconscious through drawings and sculpture. Their vivid storytelling explores themes of memory and Mesoamerican mythology through humour and collective action.

Xezu was known for his eccentric experiments and strange creations, but his latest endeavor was by far his most unusual. He had concocted a potion that promised to make its user so stunningly beautiful or handsome that no one would be able to gaze upon them for more than a second.
One day, as Xezu was working with the potion, he accidentally spilled some of it into a nearby river. The river flowed into a small village, and soon, all of the villagers who drank from it were transformed by the potion's power.
At first, they were pleased with their newfound beauty and charm, but it quickly became a burden as they found that they could not go anywhere without causing a commotion. People would either freeze in panic and wonder or hide their heads, unable to even speak with the villagers.
As the days passed, the situation only grew worse. The villagers became isolated, unable to form meaningful connections with anyone. They could not go to work or attend to their daily tasks without causing chaos, and nothing worked as it did before.
Xezu, upon realizing the extent of the damage he had caused, felt immense guilt and set out to find a cure. He worked tirelessly, experimenting with different ingredients and methods until he finally succeeded in creating an antidote. He hurried to the village and administered the cure to all the affected villagers. Each person instantly became so ugly that no-one could bear to gaze upon them for more than one second.

After yesterdays slight eccentric image from Bangkok this was is more what you might expect. It shows some of the extraordinary details of the buildings in the Wat Pho complex .The temple is particularly well known for the huge golden figure of the reclining Buddha
Wat Pho is one of Bangkok's oldest temples. It existed before Bangkok was established as the capital by King Rama I. It was originally named Wat Photaram or Podharam, from which the name Wat Pho is derived. The name refers to the monastery of the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya, India where Buddha is believed to have attained enlightenment.The date of the construction of the old temple and its founder are unknown, but it is thought to have been built or expanded during the reign of King Phetracha (1688–1703).
