Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I started looking at the top floors first and my brain just could not process that those were numbers. Not until I started at the bottom and worked my way up.

Haha, yes this happened to me as well!

It pisses me off so much that 4 and 6 are backwards.

They're not though. Read from left to right they're oriented correctly. It's the other floors that are backwards when read left to right

Not if you look outside from within the building.

Oh, very interesting point. Either way some of them are backwards which is a shame for a cool design idea like this

Yeah cool design nevertheless. Found some pictures from within, they picked one of the 'wrong' floors for those shots, hehe: https://www.sosbrutalism.org/cms/18741632

I feel like the majority orientation determines the right orientation.
