Yeah, I realize I've just created the lamest thread ever. I think I'd better get off and go read a book.

No, don't go away just yet. ;-)
How about a three story structure that has the first 1 1/2 levels submerged. The sides facing the sun are exposed to radiant heat, the gardens are located there and the excess heat helps to create a draft that cools the buried rooms...

How about a Frank Lloyd Wright Usonian house because you're practical and reasonably priced.
Edit to add: You're asking us to describe you, right?

Do jumping castles count as buildings? I would be a jumping castle because....well, they are silly and encourage bouncing. Bouncing is a seriously under-rated activity.

A. G. Rizzoli was an "outsider" artist (unacknowledged in his life) who would do portraits of people as elaborate buildings.
I couldn't locate the elaborate castle titled "Shirley's Temple" for a friend named Shirley. But the partial picture below was titled "Mother Symbolically Recaptured." He was really a quiet draftsman -- slept at the foot of his mother's bed until she died. Never married. Died a virgin.

I would probably be the Chicago Spire:
Because:
A. I usually stick out like a sore thumb.
B. People can find me abrasive as a cutting tool (which is what the building looks like)
C. People either love me or hate me, rarely middle of the road. Aesthetics are all up to the beholder.
D. I am a work in progress.

Tell us, John Doe, what kind of a building could you see yourself as.
