architects are egotistical subhumans
their main goal is to make something as different as possible to get their name out there. doesnt matter if it's not aesthetically pleasing. doesnt matter if they'll ruin somebody else's work

Victorians did this too
They deserve to be shat upon

No it's all about costs, they're all preassured into building garbage because beautiful things cost too much money and make people happy, inspire people, slave owners don't want that, they want you to work for less and less while enjoying what little free time you have on nonsense, entertainment and self destructive hobbies.

Denver Art Museum was Daniel Libeskind. Both Eisenman and Libeskind subscribe to the postmodern belief of deconstructionism. A belief so far from reality that they believe buildings shouldn’t even be designed around the people that actually use them.

this has been a thing since modernism. their goal is to make something visually different. function and comfort are second thoughts

If it was a regular pillar and the legs weren't retarded I'd get one in my front yard

that's postmodern
early modern is ok
the shitty thing about modern is that it infected contemporary architecture to the point we have a standard of minimameme buildings everywhere in the world

If it's the building I'm thinking of, the jarringness is the point. It's meant to symbolize Gerrmany's conflicted attitudes to the millitary.

Too bad it's also visually shithouse awful.

because it's a zoomer Yea Forums meme as exemplified here:
It wasn't invented by russians, it was invented by Sweedes and the English. It's a distinctly nordic/anglo style and only entry level /pol/faggots think it's soviet.

I don't think it's ugly, the good examples are fairly beautiful objects, I just think it's a counter intuitive artstyle to apply to living spaces. It makes you feel uneasy and uncomfortable. Sucks the humanity right out of everything of a living/working space and applies a very clinical and factory-like setting.

yeah because no art deco buildings were ever too expensive to maintain or fell down.

because that wont make them famous
art used to be about depicting nature and society through human crafting and skills. now it's about pushing and forcing concepts in an attempt to be different
doesnt matter if it's objectively shit as long as it's different

That's the Rocketeer you muppet

For those big expensive show-off buildings there's really is no excuse. However for common folk houses, it's mostly just functional design to drive costs down, while trying not too look completely ugly and souless, often failing.

>literally impossible to live in

It was heavily used by communist countries though.

It's purposely ugly though.

freebleeding but you let your discharge push an egg out of your snatch

the thing about brutalism, and anything for that matter, is that it is not in itself good, and there are a lot of really shitty examples of it, but it can still when used right be very pleasing, it's just a shame that there are a lot more bad examples than good ones

I think what's lacking in the world is creativity, so many things just look the same

I tried posting a nice pic of a brutalist building that was a diamond rotunda on a single pylon over water but gookmoot's captcha system is too fucked for it to upload before it resets

covered in buildings with glass facades.

>A UFO, the twin towers, and a giant bowl

It was heavily used by everyone, even the US.

You called it commie shit because you were referring to soviets, because your entire exposure to brutalism comes from /pol/ memes. Then you try to say you were talking about communists in general when I corrected you. Now you're saying socialists after finally looking some shit up on the internet. If you did that in the first place, we wouldn't be here.

like I said, anything for that matter, I can't complain about people complaining about not liking certain styles, since so much of the time those styles are being used in entirely the wrong ways

the main problem if anything is overuse, and that again I think comes from a general lack of creativity in the world today, or at least a lack of people willing to engage in and take risks with creativity in mind

Different people you mongoloid. But it is, essentially, a communist mindset. Liberal technocrats may have accepted it because of their own way of thinking, of making the state super efficient therefore cheaper buildings.

Marxism, communism, liberals, socialism, and technocrats really do come from the same little box, namely the enlightenment. My critique is a reactionary one, so lumping you all together makes some degree of sense. The evolution of modernist thinking is what created these abominations. Nice try /lgbt/ tranny.

The idea that the only beautiful building that can exist is one built in the style of those built between 1700-1900 is fucking stupid no matter what your ideology is. What are you thoughts on the federalist style? I mean it's not as ornate as some of the palaces of Europe. But it was built before Marx was born, so what do you think? Or are you one of those deep European identity faggots who think everything should be built with ionic columns and made of marble like muh Roman empire? I'm sure the idea that more than one type of beauty exists will send you into some anti-communist rant again.

The problem is with enlightenment itself. Actual GOOD post-modern critique could possibly fix this, but you communist trannies like you will taint everything you touch. Discussion about restoring beauty in architecture will only be possible after progressivism die. Just watch a few lectures by guys like Scruton, as he insists his country should build beautiful things while everyone else insists on building concrete blocks and destroying beautiful older buildings. Both socialist and liberal forces want nothing to do with civilizational beauty anymore.

If you want me to meet you half-way in your belly-aching, then yes it's not just communists. It's the entirety of the anti-tradition left, including liberals, people you would probably call capitalists.

This has nothing to do with architecture or art appreciation. You're just regurgitating /pol/ talking points aimed at tranny discord boogeyxirs. I'm meeting you halfway in a discussion I'm not even having. You've done nothing but attribute a bunch of your political anger to me for no reason other than correcting some idiot who thinks all of any art movement comes from one singular place or person or ideology. and correcting the same faggot for confusing ideologies because he gets all his politics from an anime imageboard and reddit. probably some podcasts too. brutalism is so old at this point calling it anti-tradition is fucking retarded. so what's tradition to someone born born post-2000 like yourself?

There is experiencing the Grand Canyon or the perfect night sky, then there's the opposite. Most people may not vocalize their opinions because human beings are largely conformists in the short and medium term, but that doesn't mean we don't feel strongly about such matters. We just don't, won't, or even more likely, can't express it correctly.

And you fail to realize you're doing exactly the same thing. The reason I defended the guy is the same reason you are attacking him. He is using his own jargon, using the word "commie" to roughly describe the group that he instinctively knows is at fault, wich is his own idea of the far-left. You're using /pol/ as your own buzzword and generalizing everyone who disagrees with you as part of some monolithic alt-right image board culture, failing to understand that these critiques of modern progressive thought come and originate from other places that you are far too lazy to look for. You think it all right-wing posturing and language came from a vacuum, like a typical vapid leftist mongoloid who never read anything other than what his college professors told him to.
>You're nostalgic for the 1800s?
Your reading comprehension skills are of a lazy 12 year old's. I am critiquing modernism and the enlightenment as the origin of our current cultural problems that lead to shit like brutalism. No, I'm not nostalgic of the 1800's, I think that is where the problem originated.

see pic as example of why you're wrong. The hatred isn't new.

Experiencing a night sky is just an aesthetic experience, like looking at anything. Yes, there are people who don't care about the sky. Trying to link admiring nature to admiring buildings is a bizarre string of ideas. There is no objective aesthetic experience nor no set of objective standards to hold eveyrone's experience to. Some people see the Grand Canyon, think it's neat, and then go on with their lives. Some people appreciate it more than others. But you wouldn't go to a different canyon and say it's invalid because it just isn't as good as the Grand Canyon. People definitely don't feel strongly about the things you do. Nor should they. It's self-centered to think that everyone should appreciate something as much as you do and they're wrong for not doing so. They're not sheep, they just don't share your opinion.

ok grandma

I'm not projecting at all, I'm saying I like all of this stuff there's no hair pulling involved. It's just something that you often hear people openly disliking. Like you're doing right now. I've also been in multiple capitals and I still like London. I wouldn't say it's as outright beautiful as Rome or Prague but it has a very distinct character which I happen to like.

You still haven't said one fucking thing about architecture, just ranting about what you think I believe. This is how a lot of stupid people argue. They can't win the actual argument at hand so they get meta and start critiquing the way the argument is going. Nobody cares that you're so retarded you think the world needs return to the 1500-1600s. That wasn't even close to what the original point was. You're defending someone who was wrong because you're so entrenched in deus vult shit that you think it didn't matter he confused two terms that mean different things. I know words don't matter to you. If they did, you wouldn't be jerking off over pre-enlightenment Europe. But that has nothing to do with efficacy of a particular architectural style.

Not all modern buildings are ugly. Modern design can be nice and unique. It's when people want to destroy classic old time design.

Look at (the left/degenerate) who say Notre Dame should he rebuild into some modern style building or office building.

You can have beauty in many orders. Not all old design is good or bad. Not all new design is good or bad.

> it's a conspiracy
Brutalism is PURPOSELY ugly. They made it as plain and cheap as possible, on principle. It's no conspiracy, it's open self-flagelation for the sake of some moral idealism.

In the Halo books it was what they called it when the covenant vaporized the surface of planets from orbit with superheated plasma beams. In Australia it means bashing somebody over the head with a bottle.

I've seen exactly one brutalist building I liked and that was because it looked cyberpunk. Not a good feel if you're going for "things people actually enjoy living in and around."

I agree that what ornamentation is included is focused more on being imposing than pretty, but I wouldn't necessarily say it's intentional ugliness, more a different aesthetic. If you wanted to make a building as ugly as possible that'd be more easily achieved with clashing fluorescent colours and shit like that. Stark doesn't necessarily mean ugly.

Why can't you have an aesthetic experience without a bunch of pretext and subtext given by others? That's my main gripe more than anything. Even beyond this thread. We always have this problem. Nobody can explain why they don't like something or why it's bad. It just is. And when they do try to defend it, it's cookie-cutter arguments that stem from unrelated political ideologies or board culture non-sequitur bullshit. When you try to fight against the circle-jerk you just get a bunch of whiny people crying about how you're pigeon-holing them and how it's not fair to assume they're idiots. Stop being stupid and you won't be judged as such. You don't have to post anything. You can look at a thread and leave it. You don't have to jump in and give an opinion about something you don't know anything about. But you guys do it anyways and get upset when challenged. Any persistent resistance gets accusations of rage.

I think I'm just to the point where I have outgrown Yea Forums. It's not even your fault. I'm just taking it out on you because you're here. This place is the antithesis to thought. It subsidizes herd mentality and a race to accuse everyone of emotional instability.

Catholic revival won't make the world a better place. It won't correct whatever mistakes you see in enlightenment because that's not how time works. It's not course correcting a car going down the road, where you can go down the wrong street and just turn around and get on the right path. It's one long street. Whatever course correction you do now will just be stacked on whatever mistakes you think humanity has made. Which is different than the traditions being maintained organically in the first place. Catholic revival won't make us less degenerate, it won't bring back old architecture, it won't make you wealthier or more popular or less of a lazy asshole, or make the gold standard come back or make free countries into monarchies again. Whatever gripes you have are done and will be done for eternity. Saying "you're on the wrong side of history" isn't even correct because it implies you have a choice. You can't go home again.

What makes you think I can't? Your whole post is just full of baseless assumptions -- maybe not completely unwarranted because Yea Forums IS a shithole -- but you're still not engaging with what's being said, and rather you scattershot your counter-points.

Surely you don't think any person can just casually point to what and why exactly something is beautiful or profound. It just so happens that particular text from Lewis stuck with me. I do think we might have the ability to see objective beauty and that it's not a completely subjective/relativistic/individual process. Speaking rationally and even biologically, what would be the point in such a mechanism if that were the case?
Anyway, that's just my uneducated opinion, which is why we depend on great literature and writers, and a whole tradition built up over centuries (and that has nothing to do with /pol/, even though they might similar talking points, especially to sidetrack discussion into race superiority).

Like what the other anons said, there are serious issues with Britain but it's not the totalitarian nightmare realm full of pakis like /pol/ paints it to be either. You need to become a more well rounded person fag.

No, it's a move towards resource efficiency. Moan all you want about beauty and "insect hives" and all that shit, but you're not the one who's actually paying for a building to be constructed. If you were, you'd much likely consider "beauty," "soul," or whatever supposedly isn't "insectile" to be more than an acceptable tradeoff for balancing the budget.

Different guy dumbass.

It's not a square unless from satellite view in which case almost every building with right angles would be. And the beautiful original building is still 100% intact right next to it, the two don't even touch except with a few floating walkways. When seen from the museum square side it fits nicely with the Van Gogh museum building and its extension (which was already a modern building) right next to it and there's no shortage of original classic museums in the vicinity with the Rijksmuseum a few hundred meters on the other side of the square.

I mean, the funny thing here is that without public education there'll be fewer people who actually know how to build the complex structures you want. Yeah yeah I know, you'll claim the public education is a waste and doesn't produce anything, but that's a separate argument. On the face of it, cutting public education makes it harder to build anything but "sterile, concrete insect hives."

The Queen unironically hates the state of modern architecture in Britain and her son even has tried to push for a more traditional revival. The Prince of Wales even built a whole new town in a neo-georgian style, and actually while it got mocked an not everything there is a winner, it's nicer than most building projects in the UK over the last twenty years or so.

They literally tore down hundreds of thousands of solid Victorian, georgian and earlier buildings to build these monstrosities.

Can't I just have some good old brick houses? It's as practical as brutalism, but doesn't have the same "rough" outlook, despite being rougher. I guess that's because the idea of a rough outlook is associated with the crime that follows cheap housing and not the literal roughness of the building material.

It's the lack of asbestos siding in new houses. Asbestos is the greatest material humans have ever made. Just don't fucking rub sandpaper on it you'll be fine.

>I mean, the funny thing here is that without public education there'll be fewer people who actually know how to build the complex structures you want.
You mean more right? Kids would learn more if public education involved forcing them to watch history documentaries at home, and then taking quizzes. Public education is a literal scam, especially highschool and 90% of college courses.
>On the face of it, cutting public education makes it harder to build anything but "sterile, concrete insect hives."
Absolutely not. The state could redirect its investment in educating architects and cratsmen as well as building such beautiful structures directly instead of giving luxury daycare to teenagers.

It looks like shit but who cares? It's not like the ROM looked great before.

If that were the case why are brutalist buildings so much more expensive to make than any other style?
As far as I know the only way brutalism is better than other styles is in speed of construction. It has nothing else going for it.

Right, right, just like I said, "you'll claim public education is a waste and doesn't build anything." But, again, the funny thing is, your alternatives still cost money. The more money the state directs to training architects and "cratsmen," the less money it has to spend on materials for those craftsmen to build with. Not to mention all the other stuff it has to pay for as well (even if you think social services are a waste, you guys tend to have a higher opinion of the military). It just makes no sense to waste much money on aesthetics. Yeah, it's a matter of priorities, but the simple fact of the matter is that "lolberts" have better, more practical, and more functional priorities than a dweeb who thinks efficiency and cost-effectiveness are somehow "buglike."

i remember there was a shitstorm because of how ugly this buildings is

Are they? According to Wiki,

>Brutalism gained considerable momentum in the United Kingdom during the mid-twentieth century, as economically depressed (and World War II-ravaged) communities sought inexpensive construction and design methods for low-cost housing, shopping centres, and government buildings.

From what I understand brutalism started to grow in popularity not because of some leftist plot but because nations ravaged by the most destructive war in history simply didn't have the money and time to splurge on more expensive styles.

Map layout design is far more important than excessively detailed geometry.

No they don't, lolberts advocate for a corporate consumerist society. Your priorities are to give people more money so they can buy more plastic toys to furnish their beehive concrete living quarters, while your progressive left-wing brethren insist all your tax money is given by useless bureaucrats demanding more and more resources for education while the average student performs worst academically than he would have 50 years ago while costing more money to the state.

The whole thing is absolutely disgusting and my suggestions only put you off because you were brainwashed into thinking any alternative to the current system is immoral.

This is more or less how it started which is why it has a bad rep in the UK because a bunch of low income housing was churned out. Smithdon School is a good example. As it developed as style you had a more complex and expensive set of ideas with techniques like rope cast concrete which are really expensive. I guess Paul Ruddolf is an example of this (pic related) but its been awhile since i paid attention.
