Frank Lloyd Wrong can suck a fat fucking chode, I don't know why people like that disgusting fucking building.
So get this, the family approach the guy to design an unobtrusive, low profile cabin in the woods that they can feel comfy in without being disturbed by strangers, so what does this egotistical jackass do?
1) He absolutely fucking annihilates the budget they set for his vanity project.
2) He makes the place absolutely fucking massive.
3) He paints it a colour that only makes it unobtrusive during one fucking season of the year, and it sticks out like a sore thumb every other season.
4) He tries to be "ahead of his time" by designing an unstable fucking cantilever that needs to be fixed decades later.
5) He designs the interior to be purposefully uncomfortable to force its inhabitants out onto these massive fucking balconies, instead of designing a friendly interior that lets them choose (I'm 6'4 and it was disgustingly uncomfortable to be in such a wide space with such a low ceiling).
6) The family wanted privacy, but what if you go sunbathe on the main balcony - you can be viewed with your fucking tits out from the guest bedroom, the son's bedroom and the office.

Back in 2012 when my family went over to the states, we drove from our relatives near Philly, across PA to see this heaping pile of shit because my brother is a (then aspiring, now qualified) architect who wanted to dickride this overblown prick's abomination.

True. I picked that image mostly because its iconic. I think it looks kinda cool to, but strictly speaking it isn't well designed.

In his defence though, the client always has a chance to look at the design and provide feedback. If they didn't like the design they could have told him to fuck off. They basically let him walk all over them so they could brag about having an FLW designed home to their rich friends. They were totally complicit in his ego project

I approve of this thread

>>15066598
post strange

>>15067904
In defence of modern architects and craftsmen this is more a result of technology changes and market demands than a lack of the ability or willingness to develop that level of design skill.

>>15067904
shut the fuck up

>>15067831
Yeah, it does. Maybe because it is too smooth and doesn't have enough details. Also the color palate doesn't seem lifelike.

>>15066889
I agree it's a shit building, but its cooler when you consider he only used materials from the surrounding area (resulting in shitty color) and each furniture set he makes is 1 of 1 to fit the original style.

Like le corb was any better. He should have stuck to furniture.

>>15066889
No sense of aesthetic. Great artists dont give a fuck whats being commissioned of them, they do what they want and then fucking fight about it. Family didnt back out when Wright threatened to because its better he do what he wants then get a different architect.

>>15067908

saying Sagrada Familia is "currently being built" is a liiiiiiiiittle misleading when you consider they started building it in 1882

This. Casuals think it's ok for architecture just looks cool.
Anyone who understands the discipline knows it is a marriage of form and function when it's at its best. It's design, not art.

>>15070097
This is exactly why the building is shit, because the architect wanted to be an artist. Architects aren't artists and architecture is not art. When they think they are creating art they create ostentatious bullshit. they went into architecture because they couldn't actually cut it in the art world because it requires true creativity not rehashes of the last centuries sculptural movements with a door attached. If they didn't have their name attached to the building a good 95% of them would find some other career. I hate these wannabe artists, the great architects of the past 5000 years would have laughed at them and their delusions

>>15071207
yeah ok

>>15071207
I was with you for the first bit but going into architecture because you couldn't cut it as an artist? Are you somehow under the impression that art is hard and architecture is easy?

>>15066598
Does anybody have a good resource for studying well-known styles and architects?

>>15071445
Not at all. I'm an architect student. This path just has the tendency to attract failed artists, their medicore visions can be better sold with a "practical" aspect attached to it because if it stood on its own as pure art it would be trashed and discarded. Both art and architecture done at the highest level are equally difficult but require different talents. Solid careers like architects can have bad practitioners because in the end no matter what you have something tangible in the end, for art you don't have this leeway, it's either the best or worthless

>>15071511
i would say that to make money as an architect you need to be the best

>>15071207
>>15071511
Original FLW hater here. You make two assertions that I wanted to address.
>Architecture is not art
I don't agree with this, and I think the reason is that a lot of people have a definition of art that is too narrow and not correct. People view art as a luxury, and one that - ironically for an era of panem et circensis - is often seen as superfluous and non-essential. The other perversion of the definition of art common to these times is that it's all about "making a statement", rather than "aspiring to beauty and form", which is absolutely what it traditionally was, and what it should be.
If you've lived on a box spring in a prefabricated flat, if you've worked in a cubicle in a telephone centre, you realise that the beauty and form of the environment you live in is not a superfluous, non-essential luxury. It is absolutely necessary for the human soul. And form IS a function, in this respect.
Architecture is functional art. It's art that you immerse yourself in, that you live in.
>Architects are just failed artists
A bad architect has failed at the art of architecture. A good architect is a good artist.
FLW was "trying to make a statement". That's why his art failed, just the same as so many contemporary artists' work, the likes of which you find in MoMA etc, fails.

well you would be wrong, they are from italians

>>15071876
Here I was thinking Italians were tasteful and shit. Maybe the ones who emigrate are the distasteful ones. That wouldn't be surprising. North America became a dumping ground for the Calvinist prod headcases of the British Isles and the endogamous luddite weirdos of the German speaking world.

>>15071929
The whole time "European sophisticated taste" meme is true but definitely exaggerated.

Would an architectural board work? I want that so bad bros.

>>15072375
no but there might be enough interest to try and keep a general going....probably not though

>>15071852
lmao, I snuck into it and we were chucking the cornhole bean bags off the room onto other buildings at like 2 am

>>15072381
It's hard to keep a thread going because there is no place where people of that interest congregate.

I mean, this is the only board I ever see architecture threads and I would not say arch and fashion are at all related.

For sure it would be a slower board but I think a community would sprout up pretty quickly

>>15072381
>>15072412
there are arch boards (not here of course) but there was a big push against anonymity out there, in part because everyone wanted their post to be self-promotion (in a positive way). the place became less fun after that - and the vitriol and the cliches run deep: the 'practicalists' the 'classicists', the not so arty artists all being assholes to each other without a lot of people looking for a middle ground - you get that here as well a bit - its already in this thread - architecture strikes a fucking nerve i guess.
average age and experience also effect quality. architecture has a huge history obviously and yet everyone wants to fight about frank lloyd wright or brutalism (which may or may not exist).

>>15072880
Wait, so you don't think an arch board would work because people would argue and rehash on a few topics routinely? That's literally every board, how new are you?

>>15073031
no, i dont think one would work here because of stupid cunts like you.

I'll start posting then. I usually only come to /fa/ because of the architecture threads. I'll scan a few of my books.

Marketing is a bigger determinant. There are countless talented and hard working architects that wallow in financial mediocrity because they don't know how to network or spin their work right for a client. Charisma matters more than skill at least as far as pay goes.

>>15066889
If you hate Frank Lloyd Wright as much as I do, send an email to input@franklloydwright.org and tell them you respect the decision to shut down the school. The School of Architecture got shut down because it costs millions to run and practically bankrupts the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. Or perhaps we should shame the Foundation into reopening the school since it would bankrupt the Foundation. I don't hate his architecture, I just don't really care for it. I just hate the fucking cult surrounding this guy.

>>15071511
Art and architecture are both propaganda for the ruling class. Music is for going to war or to sing about the war after it is over. Poetry is the only true revolutionary force, although sometimes it can be used for destruction, since it has original "Shiva-essence". But since it's all one big loop the philosopher of yesterday inspires the poet of tomorrow, if only out of contempt for the man on non-action (ie Napoleon).

>>15075157
Wrong. All architecture stems from fashion.

>Enclosures (walls) were said to have their origins in weaving. Just as fences and pens were woven sticks, the most basic form of a spatial divider still seen in use in parts of the world today is the fabric screen. Only when additional functional requirements are placed on the enclosure (such as structural weight-bearing needs) does the materiality of the wall change to something beyond fabric.

>The mat and its use in primitive huts interchangeably as floors, walls, and draped over frames was considered by Gottfried Semper to be the origins of architecture.

like kahn doesnt have some wack ass little houses, cmon - there really isnt room to dislike wright (as an architect)

>>15077401
Isn't there? His work is pretty famous for being uncomfortable to live in. Don't get me wrong, I actually like a lot of aspect of Wright's work, and anyone who pioneers a new design style deserve a little slack cut to them, but saying everything about it is perfect is just completely wrong

No. Can't be bothered to dig that up for you.

Seriously though have you never heard this? His custom furniture was uncomfortable, he had no understanding of acoustics, he often designed halls claustrophobic, etc.

>I'm not even a big Wright fan
>unparalleled legacy
>everything about it is perfect
Not a fan? You sound like Wright is your fucking bull or something. Defending Wright's legacy as some sort of architectural messiah is just as much a dumb meme as the people who say he was a hack. A realistic and objective take (mine because I'm so fucking smart) is that he was a very talented architect who made some iconic work. There are flaws in the livability of his work, but on the whole these are easy to give since he was trailblazing. The first innovators of a trend are rarely the perfectors of it and often times are aware of the shortcomings of their work and accept it in order to get the new idea out in the world. Wright is no exception

Shut the fuck up, nigger. Poland was terrorizing the German minority, occupying Danzig and didn't renew the non-aggression pact with Germany. Also it had waged wars against every single one of its neighbouring countries - except for Germany at this point.

Nazi Germany was inarguably at fault. They had so many chances, their neighbors were so desperate to avoid war it isn't even funny. Sorry your material heritage was turned into a gravel quarry as a result. It actually is unfortunate. But I'm not weeping over carthage either, start shit get hit.

The thing is that an architecture thread would most likely belong on /ic/, but they focus on thier "careers" rather than the discussion of art and aesthetics in general.

This board cares the most about style, and like fashion architecture is a manifestation of culture/style. There are threads on /wg/ about it but there isn't much in the way of discussion.

>>15078513
Yeah. I like it to, pinhead.

>>15078558
exactly, ass hat

>>15076650
why did you greentext Schloss-Neuschwanstein when you were replying to me talking about Fallingwater?

Personally I like Anthroposophical architecture. I prefer the first Goetheanum to the second.
It varies stylistically. Some of it comes across as typically asinine expressionist architecture.
But when it's done tastefully, it realy works.
Erik Asmussen's is kind of neither, to me. It's somewhere else but very distinctive. His buildings often looked like tall, colourful, irregular barns or silos.
I personally believe Joan Allen's architecture was the most tasteful and the most faithful to its intended purpose.
In many of these buildings, you walk in and there's a sense of proportion and openness. There is an organic irregularity to them that mitigates unnatural, boxy right-angled corners.
Quite the opposite of Fallingwater, they are buildings designed to be comfortable to live in. Soft, warm, inviting and they don't impose on you.

>>15070754
Neat
>>15071372
Kinda cool, but I'd love to see the full thing for context.
>>15071445
Simple, somewhat pleasing.
>>15071761
God, I can only imagine the neighbors in a place like that.
>>15072375
The fuck is this?
>>15072412
This is how I'd design my fallout shelter.
>>15072615
BR2049-core. Love to look at it, wouldn't want to live in it.
>>15073050
Because who doesn't want to live in a parking complex?
>>15073051
Would be nice if it were somewhere else. Doesn't really fit with the buildings around it.
>>15073055
Is this that scene in the last Harry Potter, with the weird baby Voldemort thing?
>>15073057
I want to like it and I almost do, but then I immediately go back to thinking it's ugly as fuck.
>>15073059
I think they forgot a few light fixtures.
>>15073062
Decent. I see 3 houses surrounding this one in the pic though, so no privacy with all that glass.
>>15073069
Pretty nice. I like the loft thing.
>>15073070
When you're depressed because you have too much money

>>15078613
thats meaningless verbiage. im sure they made uncomfortable chairs too.

>>15078667
I can't decide if I kinda like this or really hate this...

>>15078846
yeah, the rudolph, alexandra road, james stirling models really hit a wall in dealing with form

Greene & Greene were so based, even if some of their designs got a little too woodwork circle jerk. Cloud lifts are gorgeous.

>>15078881
agreed

Terunobu Fujimori is one of my favorites. His designs are the perfect amount of whimsy and make fantastic use of traditional natural materials. I think he succeeds because he spent most of his life writing studies on architectural eccentricities and didn't begin designing until he reached his forties. He has a vision that isn't limited by convention.

Germany was without a doubt Europe's last and a bastion of virtue.

Hitler liberated his home country, Austria, from a dictator, and enforced the self-determination of the German people. Czechia even agreed to go under the umbrella of protection.

But thanks to the Anglo, Europe was destroyed, both physically, political and morally.

>>15078927

I love Tadao Ando

Looks like Judge Dredd is about to walk outta there

We should ban Dutch architecture. Just revoke any license held by a Dutch architect, anywhere.

>>15080097
look at all that glass
modernism waiting to shed its useless skin

>>15071861
Dunno. Something about jet fuel and steel beams.

Sounds cool. I'll check him out.

Sir Isaac Newton made plans of what he thought the temple of Solomon would look like pretty cool if you ask me

Is anyone a fan of Art Deco? I kind of wish we could start seeing a Neo-Art Deco aesthetic or something in the near future

>>15080979
what about NeonDeco? like cyberpunk but with brick buildings instead of glass skyscrapers

>>15081040
Ah shit, that might actually be cooler. Do you have any pics for better illustration?

>>15080979
there isnt anything even slightly deco about this picture

>>15081303
How about this one?

>>15081322
you need to stop looking at like indian renderfarm websites and look real, historical stuff

>>15081345
>look real, historical stuff
Historical stuff is not a fun or aesthetic.

>>15081354

>people know more about architecture than fashion

>>15070182
why is american architecture so soulless?

>>15066598
they just don't do it like this any longer...

>>15081484
of the many jokes, ill go with : theres bad art every where and people's ignorance of architecture as art exacerbates this - everywhere

/his/ here, i prefer ancient architecture.

>>15081496
Mycenae revival when?

>>15081540
this, i just want women to walk with their tits out once again.

>>15081496
muh nigga

>>15072412

i think architecture threads are more common on /pol/ but they get janny'd pretty quick

>>15066598

>>15081742
are you fucking kidding?
are they all just like potato phone pics of their local mcdonalds?

>>15072412
/his/ gets architecture threads. although you can't really post modern architecture on them.

why does it need to be a general

>>15066907
>>15066910
Boggles my mind how these things were built back then, the kinds of labour, machines, ladders, delivery of materials etc

Is there a documentary for these old buildings in rural europe?

>>15078900
Based

Didn't know the guy, I'll check him out

>>15081784
does it have to be rural?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUBnNDloGHg

>>15081784
they still build just as amazing things now. it's all just focused on places you will never see sadly.

>>15081763

nah, it's actually just this thread, basically the same

oldists vs newists flinging shit

>>15081837
well shit.
i guess im off to /pol/

>>15081836
>now
Yes but I assume they're using electricity and cranes etc, back then it didn't exist

>>15071761
aka: Chinese owed houses.

>>15070227
absolutely kino

>>15066889
The vast majority of burger homes are terribly designed for actual comfort and livability, but at least Lloyd's stuff looked nice unlike McMansions.

>>15078190
>neither of you understand the point of the fountainhead then.
No one, and I mean literally no one, gives a shit about your failed meme ideology.
>neoclassical serves no purpose
This is like saying dressing up serves no purpose since it provides no better function than dressing like a slob.

>>15081837
I like both. Am I a freak?

>>15081496
Anyone else ever heard of "ruin value" ? A policy developed in Nazi germany that public buildings should be designed in such a way that they would make for pleasing ruins for future generations. One of many really good ideas that were chucked out because they were tied to the Nazis.

>>15076423
>Japan
>concrete
You have no idea what you are talking about. Jap houses are made of local wood (because it is readily available and cheap) with strategic metal supports in order to create a light weight frame that is both earthquake resistant and easy to tear down as Japanese homes are not intended to last more than 30 years.

>>15069120
i wouldn't check the basement if i were you

>>15082681
it's almost frustrating how many good (or at least interesting) aesthetics are poisoned forever because Nazi Germany adopted them

>>15081873
i mean stuff you can find inside the buildings. server farms, advanced support structures and whatever else high tech shit goes inside these buildings. they are marvels of modern engineering and would have been impossible for historical people to build.

>>15070227
Incredible

>>15082842
>almost frustrating
>almost
It is beyond frustrating

>>15078190
Not all architects are stalwartly against ornament. That's just a meme perpetuated by early modernists.
