Oh shid I couldn't tell it was white from the picture

Portugal has my favourite architecture

>>14418389
concrete isn't necessarily bad either, pic related is cladded with colored mortar

>>14418408

>>14418411
I just hate brutalism, most the buildings in this style are usually decrepit (like pic related) and really bring down the image of the areas they're in.

Voted the ugliest building in Stockholm, and its actually the school of architecture.

They knocked this ugly fucker down fortunately

>>14418432
Looks like they forgot to put cladding on it

>>14418432
Considering the current architectural civil raging in Sweden, it's a potent symbol for how far removed the architect community is from the common man.

even more crazy irl

>>14418424
I despise the balfron and treglone towers, but sometimes brutalism isn't atrocious.
see pic and barbican

>>14418498
Those are really ugly too

Where did Brutalism come from? The communists? I’d agree that it isn’t pleasant, but I think I like it in the same way I like Art Deco. The “fuck efficiency, we have power” mindset from back then just draws me in for some reason.

>>14418556
Are those ski runs on the opposite hills or what?

>>14418570
No, not the Communists. Brutalism literally came from a shortage of steel post WWII. Le Corbusier had to find an alternative and went for concrete

>>14418570
Brutalism derives it’s form from function, unlike most other buildings that derive their form from aesthetic. It is Swedish in origin and comes from modernist architecture. Like anything besides rocket engines, any attempt by the soviets was a poor facsimile of the real deal.

>>14418287

>>14418597
Brutalism feels like functionalism taken even further, sometimes too far.

>>14418597
How is that any more functional than a traditional cape cod style?

>>14418287
>collecting rainwater
have fun in fucking JAIL

My uni campus is pretty brutalist and I don't know why.

>>14418439
wtf is up with the glorification of the common man

>>14418349
>>14418363
>>14418376
Many of the buildings and features at my university in Canada have this as well? Was it just a euro thing or was it big in na as well?

>>14418570
Brutalism mainly started in Britain from my memory. Many of the “dystopian” looking buildings in A Clockwork Orange are actually really famous brutalist works. The idea was that it was brutally honest, unpainted concrete, no unnecessary support beams or columns, etc. The ruskis liked it because it was efficient and uniform.

>>14418597
>>14419138
Actually scratch britain, he’s right about sweden, tho the English were the ones who really pushed it on the international stage.

>>14418424
Some of the later brutalist buildings, especially the ones that aren’t boxy, are actually quite pleasing in a way the others ones aren’t. Pic related was in Chicago, but they knocked it down a few years back.

how many architects here?

>>14419156
Hasn't Bauhaus' hideous nature become a meme 90 years ago

Stalinist classicism

>>14419156
im studying atm, in my last year, this is one of my favourite Bauhaus buildings by Marcel Breuer

>>14418343
This is actually really nice to look at, kinda like a metabolist mixed with brutalism. what is it though?
>>14418400
That just looks like a pain in the ass to walk up
>>14418424
i agree with you, how ever i think i the ideology of brutalist architetcure is really interesting, ofcourse it does not work in our modern day world, but back in the 1930-40s where half of europe was run by socialists and communists the brutalist aesthetic was idealised by governments to promote the feeling of power.
>>14418782
i feel like this is 2nd piece of architecture everyone learns about at archi school after fallingwaters

what is it with the Swiss and concrete?

Most of these are absolutely soulless. Especially the Jewish Bauhaus stuff.

>>14420298
use better materials, craftman ship is ok, but higher quality materials and better glue would do a lot for this model, i use uhu and pva

>>14419192
I'm always surprised that the stalin era architects didn't try to create something new and dump anything traditional

This is the tallest building in my city (75m/246ft) and it's very ugly

i wanna major in architecture but my uni only has it for grad school
whats a good bachelor to compliment it?

>>14420102
isnt it mean, giving animals structures into there enclosures they most likely arent even able to fully comprehend?

There's shit next to it but there's no other tall buildings near it, total eyesore

>>14418595
lol
"brutalism" - the actual ISM comes from the Smithson's use of steel in their first school project.

after that, its literally just media name-chasing confusion.

you get an F - go take a history class.

>>14418597
what a joke. its british, name-wise, with a vague reference to the concrete work of Le Corbusier - who may be originally swiss, but that's neither here nor there, and his concrete is about FORM, VOLUME, LIGHT, SHADOW, PROPORTION. you cunts got it all backwards.

First: FRANK LLOYD WHO? jesus kill yourself
Second: isn't it interesting that someone might be ranting 'against' """brutalism""" but not know the difference between an actual """""""brutalist""""""" building and a Usonian house by Wright? its not an question of "interior design"?

This isn't shit. It is big and opressive now, but only because this building was made by the soviets.

If you were on their side, this says strong and glorious. A huge symbol of power, nonetheless.

Pinterest tier. Same criticism as above.
They are also both renderings, students probably made these.

90% of the modern and postmodern styles are equivalent to athleisure and soccer-mom fashion. Glass shit is the worst offender not only because of the polyester suit aesthetic, but because the buildings are always obnoxiously large.

These buildings are common because they have the same appeal as t-shirts and cargo shorts, not because the architects are enlightened or skilled.

>>14430741
based. I love a lot of mid century and contemporary architecture but I agree that a lot of it is merely trendy. These are the spaces we spend our lives, they should be rich in character.

>>14418597
>Brutalism derives it’s form from function
The most efficient form is a simple well built square. Add ornament and you have classicism

>>14430695
it's my master thesis

>>14430741
It's a natural result of overpopulation and hikes in the value of space. They tried it with concrete exteriors first and the buildings performed terribly. Natural light is also extremely valuable, glass is the best material not only for that but also for buildability and maintenance.

>>14431305
