Brutalist is the absolute, bar none, worst architectural style ever.

I wish there was more gothic revival.

Interesting fact: there use to be a huge gothic structure in new Orleans near the bywater area, but it burned down during the civil war

Sorry. I accidentally downvoted. I’ve always liked Gothic the best.

What’s all that nasty bullshite called that we did in America from the 70s - mid 90s? It’s the one time you can say “I’ve seen uglier buildings in the quad” because of its poster child Middleton Library.

I’d take brutalism over that bullshite any day.

Blobitecture also applies to the shite you see on the beach these days.

What does it say about a culture when it erects massive buildings, that appear to be designed to make you sad?

What was wrong with us?

That’s fair.

Things generally went off the rails after WW2.

I can't argue with this point.

All of that is Art Deco. Just like everything they look at on HGTV is Art Deco
