il semblerai que c'est voulu forme de decoration.
sinon on ne mettrai pas une lumiere rasante qui fait ressortir les ombres. l'autre facade est tres bien carrelee donc??
Perhaps, but if u look at the lower picture on of the tiles on the left corner seems to be cracked.
its the design of the bricks trust me I seen it before in other buildings in america and canada
They are supposed to look like that, eno its so obvious its not something you miss...like u made a serious discovery, you are very biased finkployd...but we like u
Hi finkployd
These are indeed made to appear like this (im 4th year civil engineering). Uf you look closely to the left side of the building (the whole in the 3rd picture), the stones are perfectly straight where as the same brick facing forward is not, the builders have cutted the stone in order to give it that look. If it it like you say, there would be no way for that building to stand without collapsing. Hope that helps. Add Comment
