The Modern Movement has finally come full circle,
puns Brian Micklethwait about this:
An unusual apartment building was inaugurated in Brazil, each of whose 11 storeys turns independently, giving lucky residents 360-degree views of the eco-friendly city of Curitiba.For US$300,000 you and your guests --and your pets, too -- can get dizzy every day, since "At low speed, each floor takes an hour to revolve." I don't know if they come with built-in karaoke, but one would expect a coctail lounge atmosphere. "Each apartment can revolve independently, spinning 360 to the left or to the right", I guess for political neutrality.
This building opens a whole new world of possibilities for Interior Desecration Style: "The Apartments are revolting! I mean, revolving!"
At least the one in the slide show is tastefully decorated.

I'm picturing the comedic value of the mechanism responsible for turning each floor going haywire and spinning the floors like crazy. It would be like the thing at Rye Beach and Coney Island that one would sit on until the centrifugal force threw you off. I can just see all the furniture slamming against the outside wall.
There's no accounting for the things that pop into my cruller.
Merry Christmas to you and yours, Fausta,
