Thank you, anon!

>>5074655
Just depressing cuckpods with an even more depressing view on the other brutalist cuckpods
>>5073237
This is the only slightly good looking thing in the whole thread. Brutalism truly is "humiliation ritual: the architectural style". Shit designed to depress and rule over goyms

Daily reminder that when you have to cover your building with greenery it's most definitely and ugly ass building...

>>5076393
plants are beautiful.

>>5076509
And yet they barely cover the underlying eyesore. Yes, brutalshlock is THAT bad...

>>5076881
Nice early 2000s vidya with poligonal graphics. Is that Max Payne?

>>5076883
CG? On the contrary!
It's the Vern W. Miller Civic Center, Salem, Oregon.

>>5076884
It was a joke about how ugly and dehumanizing that place is...

>>5076225
>>5073228
belgrade, called 'toblerone building'

>>5076885
I hate the fags who connect brutalism with dehumanization. It is a beautiful style that is perfectly in tune with nature, connects really well with all sorts of greenery. British went so far to hide their rampant immigrant crime by claiming it was the beautiful brutalist buildings they inflicted those incompatibles with that were responsible for violence.

>>5076888
It's literally the style of authoritarian faggots wet dreaming about their commie dystopia like Corbu, but of course it's incredible when hidden under greenery! The absolute state of betonfags

>>5078309
You are literally complaining that something ugly is being made nicer, retard

not him btw

>>5078309
You're confusing monumental with authoritarian. No dictator would appreciate facades being stripped of jingoism. Not surprising, since you are a brainlet.

Also a common mistake to confuse brutalist architecture with commieblocks, which belies both your attention span and your aesthetic sense. You would probably miss a Stalinist skyscraper in the middle of Manhattan. They're all so tall after all!

Brutalism is the architecture of sprawling urban vistas, universities, utility buildings, dams, schools, factories. The style of progress that frightens recidivists scurrying away under their faux marble arches. I almost love it more than Art Nouveau and Streamline.

(OP here, I am not the guy debating by the way)

>>5078311
I'm conolaining about an architecture so ugly that it needs to be hidden under plants. Is that tok much fifficult to grasp for your concrete filled brain?
>>5078315
>insults ad hominem
>noooo it wasn't Stalin's style, therefore Corbusier wasn't a full blown psycho dreaming of a socialist utopia (dystopia)!
>it's so monumental! You don't see how great and uplifting the concrete poo is? It's basically like the Colosseum, but ugly af and dull, lime it was designed by retards in search of approval for their inflated egos...
>the style of progress
That's art deco, brutalism is literally a style of primativism. They wanted to look like african mud huts but even uglier. Interesting how this shot architecture literally turns the people living in it in thugs (and I'm not talking about immigrants. Any popular complex built in brutal style well, brutalized its citizens to the point of becoming a banlieu (see Napoli's Vele. No immigrants, just poor terroni cramped inside hells of concrete and left there rot away)

>>5078912
Well I'm talking to you and you're a fucking retard which I proved by debating your idiotic malformed nonsense of thoughts.

I won't even go into conflating primitivism with brutalism since you cannot discern between throwback and streamline. If I was younger I'd be curious how someone can confuse mud with concrete, as pliability direly affects the form.

Anyway you're a fucking retard.

>>5076885
to be honest, I really really like it
I don't know why I love brutalism so much.

>>5079568
brutalism is honest.

>>5079728
and let me add... "simple yet functional"

>>5078920
>yes, I'm a fuckwit with a degree in pain in the assism, how do you know?
Enjoy your concrete trash bonobo
>>5079568
Probably because you lived in a place brutalized by such shit since you were a kid and noe you think it's normal or even beautiful. You've been demoralized

>>5079760
>Probably because you lived in a place brutalized by such shit since you were a kid and noe you think it's normal or even beautiful. You've been demoralized
nah, you are totally wrong.
I'm surrounded by beautiful architecture and plants.
And I still love brutal-ism.
You can like many different things and styles you know.

>>5079763
Yeah, I know there's people who eats shit and chocolate at the same time... I call them freaks

>>5079857
what a fag

>>5079858
The architect who did that abomination? For sure!

>>5080584
I hope all the brutalfags ITT are happily living in a hellscape like this one right now... otherwise they're just hypocrites

I've traveled all over, and Brutalism is everywhere....and it ALWAYS freaks me the fuck out. Some of it is intriguing, but some of it is Soviet Block shit, with minimal windows and reeks of depression.
But fuck me....it's fascinating.

>>5081123
>it's fascinating
Just like a trainwreck with plenty of gore. It's disgusting but you have to look at it. Possibly from a distance. Even better if in thumbnails on 4chan. When you see it irl you'll be cursed

>>5073235
love it. pereira is a different brutalism. peak art. beautiful.

>>5081605
>peak art
Oh yes, definitely. That unfinished deep sea oil drilling platform without sea is soul touching. Well, it literally feels like it's touching your soul in improper ways you'll have to show on a doll in front of a court
>>5082323
Inspiring... (suicidal thoughts)

>>5084252
That is no brutalism architecture.
Or is it visible exposed, unpainted concrete or brick? No, so...

Read. Especially the first paragraph.

>>5073224 (OP)
Friendly Reminder: In the movie, The Brutalist, the character of Laszlo Toth, Hungarian architect and holocaust survivor, does not exist. It was a made up movie based on two architects, Marcel Lajos Breuer (Weimar Republic) and Walter Gropius (Weimar Republic). Today’s ugly modernism architecture, sometimes called Bauhaus, is based on these two architects. One of them is responsible for the ugly building structures we call, the housing projects. The movie was complete Oscar bait from the outset. Anyway, why name him Laszlo Toth? The real Laszlo Toth is famous for his vandalism of Michelangelo’s Pieta. It’s the statue of Mary holding Jesus’ body when he was taken down from the cross. Laszlo took a hammer and severed the left arm, nose, and chipped one of the eyelids of, Mary. The way they try to hide things.

>>5084273
Yes thank you

>>5084275
Based post. I'd add that fascist/commie faggot of LeCorbu to the bunch of destroyers. Literally the horsemen of architecture's Apocalipse

>>5084271
They do make for a nice platform level in a vidiogame or a Backrooms level.

Funny how rendering this shit in b&w makes it LESS depressing

>>5073415
I was about to ask what the point was with this $200m structure but then wikipedia, as usual, had the answer
>In January 2021, following three suicides at Vessel, it was closed to the public indefinitely. Vessel reopened in May 2021, then indefinitely closed again after another suicide two months later. It reopened in October 2024 following the installation of more safety barriers.

>>5088127
>national theatre
The understated label (necessary, since it's impossible to tell that this pile of steaming concrete is a theatre) made me laugh at how pathetic this "humiliation ritual architecture" is

>>5073224 (OP)
Really great thread. The brutalist hater arguing with posters is entertaining, too.
