the think I love about the Hoxha bunkers is how they're just kind of randomly strewn about the place, they're not even in geographically defensible positions or anything

i would argue venturi is leftist

After Scott Brown introduced Venturi to Las Vegas, they led a class of architecture students to the Strip where they stayed in comped rooms at the Standard. The students smoked weed, and the professors flew around in Howard Hughes’ helicopter taking photographs. Students took to calling the course “the Great Proletarian Cultural Locomotive.” The second edition of the book, printed in 1977, was half the size so it could be cheaper to buy.

Robert Venturi did not like Boston City Hall. “It’s all a big symbol, though it won’t admit it,” the architect told writer Paul Goldberger in 1971 of the hated Brutalist landmark that opened in 1968. “How ridiculous —trying to make a piazza publico, like an Italian city‐state! If they really wanted to make it so monumental, they should have built a plain loft building and put a sign up top saying, ‘I Am a Monument.’ That would have been appropriate to today’s American city.”

I don't know if it's really a type of architecture at this point but I really like biophilic design, which is kind of like organic brutalism. One of the key ideas is that you should work with the place you're building rather than flatten everything and build from there, so you get lots of weird and interesting shapes. it's the best parts of brutalism (big, concrete) but is actually nice to be in and around

this is a tech campus in bangalore that I really like. it's built around and extends a natural pond and oriented so that the wind typically blows into and through the building for passive cooling, so it only needs a fraction of the ac capacity that an office building of equivalent sq footage would need




right now biophilic design is mostly a marketing term that companies use because they have some trees in their atrium, but apparently there is a firm in South Korea that is going all in on this style and I might try to drag my wife out to some of their sites next time we visit the inlaws if they're done in time or if I can ever afford air travel again.

How do we feel about the Moscow Metro, train stations in general are inherently leftist, and they actually put effort into making sure these ones look cool.

those rule. i'm pro putin now and want to kiss him on the lips and make him turn bart station good instead of bad

paris metro kinda sucks rear end and smells like putrefying piss, but the Arts et Metiers station is really cool and themed like a nautilus submarine.
