The Oslo Opera House in Norway has a very distinct slope leading to the water adjacent to the building, but the slope of the building was purposely designed in that way. You see, the Opera house use to be this boring old rectangular building on the border of the ocean. But then one day the form started to change, not by man, or on purpose, but by natural causes. The land started to shift, and the earth started to move. The plates under the site of the Oslo Opera house started to collide, causing the earth to move up. The force was so strong that earth penetrated the building from the bottom up, elevating and sloping the roof to different heights. The building was then rebuilt to accommodate the new topography of the sight.
