Finnish Pavilion, 1939, New York
The Finnish Pavilion in New York is a interesting building due to its curving structure. The building drew my attention because it looked very fluid in the picture but also has a combination of vertical slats that compliment the curves with a blinds effect.

Louis Khan
Kimball Musuem, 1967-1972, Texas
This building is captivating due to its repetitive use of arc formations and the way in which the building has been built to interact with its environment. The water ducts and drainage are inventive with the way they are built.

Le Corbusier
Villa Savoye, 1928-1929, Poissy, France
This early example of a "International Syle" is intriguing for its attempt to be more universal in form. With its almost plain like exterior, the interior is made interesting by a balance of curves and straight surfaces
