I'm studying architecture and tried to make a traditional model my teacher said I will fail the class if I don't make it modern. I feel like teachers want me to design ugly things and call it beautiful. I don't understand it.

Norway is currently experiencing what’s being called the “architecture rebellion”, wherein a concentrated movement has sprung up demanding traditional, beautiful architecture, and criticising the soulless, horrendous shit architects make today. In response, the leader of the Norwegian architects Union went on NRK (our version of the BBC) and in a very thinly veiled way called everyone who wants traditional architecture back stupid animals. She said traditional architecture “only appeals to your lizard brain” and that “we need to think more critically than that”. It’s unbelievable how smug, out of touch and condescending these people are

I miss the Victorian architecture 😢 The modern architecture is soo bad ; people will pay 10-15% more for Victorian. So much for function over form. How does this not have more views

My great great grandfather designed the London parliament building and clock tower. I bailed on architecture after one year. I do real estate valuation now. Eventually I will do development. Why? Because design is controlled by the money. I’d like to use money and investments to influence architecture for beauty and good. I’m convinced you can’t do it as an architect.

Compare the Scottish Parliament with the Hungarian Parliament, the difference is night and day.

[monicaconsigliereLavieenfleur]

Completely agree with you. In the last 60 years these architects destroyed all our beautiful cities in Europe. We live in dark times in everything : morals, culture, arts, Few people in power are destroying our civilisation.

When I was in college 53 years ago I attended a talk by a good friend of Frank Lloyd Wright. He said the famous architect loved 19th century architecture but felt he could not add to it so he turned to the designs that made him famous.

In the U.S. at least, real architecture stops with Art Deco, which you can still see on some gorgeous examples like Eastern Columbia Building in Los Angeles. One can only imagine what styles we would have today if not for the plague of modernism.

[ewakrawczyk]

I am happy that finally people have noticed in which ugliness we live.

[SirBalz]

Couldn't agree more. When you need to write an essay to justify why something you made is good, it's not. Good architecture speaks for itself

[MrWeebable]

The best argument against modern architecture is to observe where the decisionmakers choose to live: in traditional architecture in the old city centers.

[WillieFungo]

When you think about it, the hatred of traditional styles and objective truths have spread into many aspects of society including painting, performance art, etc. It's an all-encompassing social poison that makes people miserable.

Hi. I am from brazil, i can confirm this. Old historical beautiful buildings are being destroyed to make space for ugly crappy brutalist looking buildings. We say that Oscar Niemeyer was a genius but... idk... it looks ugly as hell.

[Ninjaananas]

The sad thing is that the architects often know the effects their stuff has on people but they think it is a good thing. Like brutalists thinking it is good that their work makes people feel terrible.
And sometimes, they are simply delusional.

I vote that the same way as there are requirements for safety and requirements for ecology there should also be requirements for beauty.

I live in Dundee, which is pretty much as post-industrial as you get. I'm sick of all the copy-paste soulless new builds popping up. They're draining the soul from the community and they're poorly made with little space to socialize. Supposedly it's an "improvement".

[hiddenharmonicssystemforwi]

I’m an architect and I approve this message.

[zlee]

Traditional architecture is better, it is a style that gets you to smile. You feel warmth. It is elegant.
This is true in both the Western world and China.

[SP]

Even most private housing are still built with traditional architectural styles up to these days.
Cars, paintings, furnitures, architecture, these brainless scammers really touched on everything.

[pisani]

We need to protest and stand up for beauty! Beauty IS function!! Enough fake "f ART" and design schools teaching students that unique idea has more validity than beauty! Anyone can have a unique idea! Not everyone can design beautiful things.
