46. Fake Reality

These pictures were taken from Hupcheon Image Theme Park in Korea. The buildings are not functional and hollow inside as they are merely film set. By putting ac condensers on the facade of a structure with no use of its internal space is, in a way, an acceptance of ac condensers as a part of reality. These buildings would actually still function well as film set without the condensers, but perhaps less lively? By the way, spot any spaghetti on the facade?

45. Spaghetti Incident 04

To strengthen our observation that exposed AC pipes intertwining on the building are commonly found in Korea, here is another example. There is no exception even on a tall building with glass facade.

44. Hot Cradles

Loose hook-on cradles are provided for these apartment units in Seoul. Another attempt to regularise the facade when dealing with ac condensers.

43. Take cover

Not wanting to give free advertisement, ashamed of the brand, lost the case or wanting to protect the case, we are not sure of the reason for the existence of this customised conderser cover found in Singapore...

42. Hot Facade

Check out these condersers lining the facade of this builing discovered in Jakarta. With their strong presence, we wonder if they were presented on the architect's drawing boards.

41. AC Shelf

Spotted in A Singapore Chinatown alley, the ad hoc use of an AC condenser to add a little greenery to a shophouse back corridor.
