Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum
Nashville, TennesseeTrue to its tuneful roots, the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville is constructed in the shape of a treble clef; it boasts an exterior that resembles a piano keyboard, right down to the piano-key-shaped windows. Built at a cost of $37 million, the museum opened in 2001 and houses a vast collection of country-music video clips, recorded music, dynamic exhibits and more.

Longaberger Company
Newark, OhioA tisket, a tasket, an office in … a basket? That’s a typical day for employees of the Longaberger Co., a maker of handcrafted baskets, pottery and ceramics, whose corporate headquarters resembles a giant picnic basket. Completed in 1997 after two years of construction, the seven-story building in Newark, Ohio, is a replica of the company’s medium market basket. It’s especially spectacular at night when light glows from the building’s 84 windows.
