  • Brutalism - yay or nay?

    Architecture, I mean. Discuss.

    For example:

    That's stupid. I suppose that's a "Nay" vote.

        That's better. The first one is OK looking, except that it looks like a tragedy waiting to happen.

              I like that Geisel library. Very Sci-fi, but far too good-looking a building for brutalism imo.

              I looks like a Space Invader.

                          First pic (CH) needs more landscaping, otherwise quite artful
                          2nd (CH) likewise needs landscaping, quite drab without
                          3rd (SH) is lovely
                          4th (Barn) could use a fresh coat of paint, but otherwise nice
                          The cake is NOT a lie. It's so delicious and moist.

                            First pic is Montreal in the wintertime. A bit difficult to landscape.

                              It looks like a mobile home park after a tornado.
