I found that Toronto had some of the coolest architecture anywhere. Pushing the envelope can be hazzardous I guess though.

The Twinkie Czar posted:Look at this structure that "flagrantly disregard their settings, reducing architecture to mere superfluous spectacle, over-exaggerated and detached from reality". And after looking at the Eiffel Tower, check out Frank Gehry’s Fondation Louis Vuitton. exactly, the critics ITT and online seem to be overly pretentious movie critics, or YLLS fashionistas.

Authentic You posted:Well, it certainly works better than the other Zaha Hadid thing the article talked about, and is not hideous and terrible like the crystal shard sticking out of the ROM. I'm not really a fan of Zaha Hadid's style at all, though - most of it looks like sets for music videos from the late 90's or giant versions of over-designed consumer electronics to me. I'd take Disney Concert Hall (which I actually think is pretty cool and well-placed, despite my general dislike of Frank Gehry and how expensive and ridiculous the construction process for his buildings are) over Hadid's vagina spaceships any day. I read all of this. So the building is pretty y/n

I think we should stop building things as they will never have history like someone said earlier. Just stop already.
