Quirky Buildings: Fish Shaped Building

This is no sky-scraper but attracts more attention

This humorous fish-shaped building is a regional office for the National Fisheries Development Board located near Hyderabad, India. According to Outlook India, the 4-story building is inspired by a “giant fish sculpture in Barcelona,” presumably the 1992 monumental sculpture “Fish,” by Frank Gehry. The building officially opened in April 2012.

Try spotting the building to your left when you travel from the airport to the city next time around ;-)

Know of any other quirky building in India, let us know.
