I don't really hate that. I think it's supposed to look like an old round barn or something, which are super cool structures. Is this in Vermont by chance? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round_barn http://www.fiddlersgreen.net/models/buildings/barn-round.html Suspect Bucket fucked around with this message at 04:40 on Dec 8, 2015 |

Groovelord Neato posted:they rebuilt our school during my freshman year and everyone said it looked like a prison: See, I really like how my high school was designed, and i have no idea why more places don't use this plan. http://photos.wikimapia.org/p/00/03/75/02/26_big.jpg http://mepham.org/building-2012-addition-tn.jpg It was constructed as a FWA project in 1936. It started out as a big U shape, but then completed as a square later on in the 50s with the construction of the gym, bigger cafeterias, and more classrooms. Classes on the interior of the square have a view of the atrium garden, which also has pretty decent air circulation. 3 stories tall, has a smaller footprint then if it was all laid out in a line, and for something that's 85 years old, it still looks really good. Interior is pretty bleh, institutional interior design and all, but it works. Oh, and the main entryway nobody uses except on special occasions is slick as hell. It led into the auditorium and front offices, it had big greek columns and neo-classical as hell without being cheesy. I hated school, but I always did appreciate how darn nice it was built. Oh, and one of the other schools in our district is sinking into the landfill it was built on, so lol. Suspect Bucket fucked around with this message at 22:24 on Jan 9, 2016 |
