Got Netflix? Relax And Discover Architecture and Design For Yourself | Alternative Fruit

A lot of us have subscribed to Netflix over the past few months, and many had it already. If you're one of the people who have found it and loved it, there comes a point where you can't think of what t put on next. Fed up of the favourites you paid the money for, now it's time to find out what else there is. There's a lot, and in reality, it doesn't always make it clear or available. I'd like to see some randomisation in the feed, perhaps a column where they don't think about what I've watched before and throw some stuff at me for fun. You never know, eh?


Architecture and Design are things that we can go on and on with, the styles, the names, the buildings, the ethics, it gets complicated quickly. The best way to feed the mind with something is to relax and let someone else do the work. Welcome to the world of communication and media. Here are some great efforts that will get you pub quiz ready on all kinds of architecture based trivia and know-how. Thanks to the good people at Arch Daily, who put this list together, Alternative Fruit is able to bounce the ball around another corner.
