What New York City's most famous buildings would look like in the middle of nowhere
Anton Repponen
No building is designed in a vacuum - architects must carefully consider many different factors, like its environment and the buildings and streets that will surround it.
These restrictions fascinate Anton Repponen, a creative director, trained architect, and photographer. In his latest personal project, entitled "Misplaced", Repponen turned those deciding factors on their head, asking questions like: "What would the Chrysler Building look like in a mountainous landscape?" and "What about the Metropolitan Opera in a Brazilian desert?"
"I wanted to see how those buildings [would] look [when] you take them out from their original locations," he told Business Insider. "Would they still work? Would it look good, or make no sense? Would they actually be even more beautiful outside their environment?"
Ahead, 10 gorgeous photos of frequented New York City buildings dropped in completely bizarre locations.
