9. Museu Oscar Niemeyer, Brazil
Designed by Oscar Niemeyer, the celebrated architect behind the creation of the Brazilian capital, Brasilia, the Museu Oscar Niemeyer in Curitiba will test your view of aesthetics. Like all great buildings – and probably more so – the art museum's appearance has an element of love-it-or-hate-it, with its main gallery shaped like a reflective glass eye, balancing atop a yellow support, and approached on curving ramps above a pool of water. Once inside the building commonly called the "Eye Museum," you'll see that every aspect of the museum's design seems to marry beauty with whimsy.
