This Instagram account will inspire you to pay more attention to the surfaces around you.  The aptly named @ihaveathingforwalls celebrates the beauty of walls and curates a selection of submissions from their followers.  Photographs of walls from Los Angeles, CA to Alicante, Spain are snapshots of beauty from peeling to painted and vibrant, to even the dilapidated.  See more recent posts captured by ArchDaily here.  While your geeking out on walls on Instagram, why don’t you follow-us too?  You’ll find us @thepanelguys.
 

Even though the United States is a relatively young country compared to the rest of the world, we have no shortage of great architecture from historic structures to postmodern masterpieces, each reflecting the unique time period and style in which they were built.  There are hundreds of landmark buildings from coast to coast and everywhere in between, but Architectural Digest did the curating for us and selected the most iconic one from each state.  Are you planning a trip this summer?  Don’t miss the opportunity to visit some of these truly incredible places.  Click here to read more.
