Too inspired to sleep

So i'm halfway through my first wednesday 4 hour break. And I amdone all my reading for English. Since I was up all night looking at achitecture that inspires me I though I would share a few that I particularily loved. Some modern, most older. I am definately a fan of the natural. Stone, brick, or wood leave me utterly speachless and feeling all giddy-in-the-clouds like.

 I just don't even know how this was done. Ingenious.
The different varieties of columns that were built early on are amazing. Same idea but each culture has their own variety and adaptions.

This is the Natural Museum of History.
I wish to walk slowly through buildings like this soaking the textures and history and engineering of these monstorous works. Running my hands along the natural stone.

This i don't even know. Amazing as well. 
This is a church. The amount of detail and effort, thought, technique, time, skill, and creativity to make this blows me away. All for God's house.
This picture just makes me think back to when it was made. What went on their. The values beleif and caulture that existed at the time.


This is just flipping neat! Like Tarzan and Jane. I just love wood.

Desperately love the morrocan/asian/spanish inspired feel.


Is it weird that sprial staircases and bookcases give me butterflies?


This is a university. Like how i've mentioned before. I would love to go to school in a building like this. So inspriring and cozy.




This is my absolute favorite. The Strahov Monestery. Absolutely breathtaking. I actually have no words. The intricate...well everything. The book cases, columns, ceilings, staircases, colors, detail. It kind of reminds me of the Beast's castle in Beauty and the Beast.









This is not even a quarter of what I stumbled upon last night. I am constantly intrigued by the different styles from different parts of the world. When houses were beginning to be built, their authors had no idea what buildings looked like in other parts of the world. With little means of transportation and record technologies each community had their own style. I one day hope to be able to witness the many varieties of mediums and teture and history of buildings all over the world.
