Fantastic architecture should not be confused with novelty architecture. While both styles have unusual, attention-grabbing designs, novelty architecture is meant to be an advertisement for the business inside, such as buildings with a giant donut on the roof. Fantastic architecture, on the other hand, serves no other purpose than the personal amusement of its builder.
Examples of Fantastic-style structures
Martin Castle
Neuschwanstein Castle
Sauer Buildings Historic District by Frederick C. Sauer, Aspinwall, Pennsylvania
Watts Towers by Simon Rodia, Watts district of Los Angeles, California
