Buildings, too, are children of Earth and Sun.
- Frank Lloyd Wright

This week we're talking about buildings. Buildings that blow you away or ones that you'd blow away given half the chance. We're talking car parks, carbuncles, high rises, lo-fi, churches, gherkins, Angels, offices - whatever building does it for you, either way, love it or hate it, let us know:

• What's your favourite building and why?

• What's your least favourite building and why?

• What buildings have we lost or are in danger of losing due to neglect and disrepair? What buildings should be restored?

• Is there a building far away you'd love to visit, such as the Taj Mahal?

• Was the Bauhaus-influenced functionality of 1960s architecture a complete disaster?

• Can buildings make you happier?

• Do you know of any buildings you would describe as evil?

• What ancient buildings do you most admire?

• If you had the power to tear down one building what would it be?

• Do you have any ideas yourself about what makes a good building?

• Do buildings have 'atmosphere'? Can they hold memories?

• What other architectural constructs other than buildings have made an impression on you? For instance, The Angel of the North or the Dublin Spire (the 'Spike')?
