City of Wine Complex, Spain

The 21,530 sq foot Wine Complex is a titanium and stainless steel building which houses a five-star hotel, a spa offering ‘wine therapy’, a viticulture museum, a wine shop and, of course, gardens to sit and enjoy the endless variety of wine.
That’s quite a collection of the world’s ugliest buildings, buildings that should never have been built; however, your collection is not perfect. It includes one building that isn’t so bad, and one that doesn’t scream out, TEAR ME DOWN. I am also surprised to see that you missed the San Diego Main Library. It deserves to be included, although when I first saw it I hadn’t realized that there are many even uglier buildings. And to think that architects actually get paid for dreaming up these monstrosities. When I was a boy, one of my dreams was to be an architect. I didn’t, and I now see how big a mistake that was. If I had become an architect, the world would be a better place today.
