The death of Utopian Scholastic and Frasier-bane as the design language of society was the final death of the west. It meant we gave up on logic, reason and high culture as virtues

>Utopian Scholastic and Frasier-bane as the design language of society
Can you extrapolate on that?

Spaces like this don't exist anymore, instead you have some disgusting corporate memphis designed to demoralize you, deindividualize you and turn you into a soulless product

>>519235926
Utopian scholastic was a design philosophy that tried to fill children's spaces with high art and science in sort of a 2nd renaissance.

frasier bane is the term that has been applied to the design and architectural school that inspired it, think of frasier's apartment. It incorporated high art, artifact, antiques and beautiful natural products

When we turned away from it, we decided niggershines were more important than, hope progress and high culture as a civilization

>>519236208
Ah, I understand now.
Thanks.

>Frasier-bane
I already go for this aesthetic anyway. It can still be had.

>>519236208
The two comfiest aesthetics. I remember the local "fancy" mall had this vibe everywhere, especially during the holidays, in the 1990s and early 2000s. Even the early 2010s you could still feel it, but it quickly became a shell of its former self.

Children's spaces used to look like this, I remember the store in the mall that sold telescopes, fossils, pinned bugs and chemistry kits. Think you could afford to buy that for you kids now?

>>519236859
:(

>>519236998
Hurts doesn't it, the world and culture you grew up with is dead and you will never share it with your kids if you even get to have them

>>519235882 (OP)

Crazy how it was still very popular until like 2007 all the way from the 80s

>>519235882 (OP)
thing that only existed for a few decades was the defining pillar of your society?

>>519235882 (OP)
True, true.

>>519237341
Well it may have had clear visual cues taken from modernist design, it was nevertheless a celebration of creating a society of greater values.

>>519237341
>thing that only existed for a few decades was the defining pillar of your society?
It was a lot more than a few decades, it is aping the victorian and resnescance spirit, the fact it is gone says a lot.

Modern memphis diversity inspired negro shit is cultural death

>>519237241
It hurts like you wouldn't even imagine.

How would this be differentiated from something like eclectic or maximalist designs?

>>519236859
The Discovery Channel Store

>>519237717
It was eclectic and maximalist, but it also adds other things that make it unique.

>>519237821
Fair enough. I'm still learning the aesthetic terms.
I think was more of an eclectic / Global Village Coffee House guy back in the 90s.

>>519237717
>How would this be differentiated from something like eclectic or maximalist designs?
Design language, the ornamentation of Frasier bane/Scholastic utopian is a reflection of the ordered systems that make up philosophy or the universe and not just a maximalist design scheme meant to indulge the eye

>>519235964
God I miss this, I remember there used to be a store called Australian Geographic which had this exact vibe

The worst part is there's NO replacement at all in 2025 for kids or adults, the way most encounter science now is essentially contained to boring reading or something you are forced to do instead of the fun of pure adventure and discovery

>>519237605
so it's a style that can be renewed? get to work you lazy, complaining faggot.

>>519238187
I can respect that. There's definitely more of a "museum" or "academy" type vibe going on there.

>>519236859
i remember toys r us had real microscopes and a plane with a working piston engine that flies on a string(superdangerous) around 2002 it was all gone

Also interesting fact! Star wars episode one is partially to blame for the death of utopian scholastic's commercial viability. Eyewitness's publisher went bankrupt after overproducing an eyewitness book documenting the making of the Phantom menace

Best aesthetic. Good thread

>>519238610
I remember some time in the late 90s there was an art book containing exploded engineering diagrams of star wars spaceships and stuff. Did DK publish that one?

They deemed all of this imperialistic colonialist because browns can't stand seeing their cultures reduced to museum topics.

>>519236859
>>519237241
>>519237605
good look maintaining anything like this with a horde of browns running around in the space

>>519238735
Yes, the published 14 million copies in the starwars line to go with the phantom menace and only 4 million sold which put them like 25million euros in the hole

>>519238840
Not really surprising it disappeared around when the first wave of brown third world communist like obama took power

I also think Vaporwave was the last gasp of this style, but covid killed it

>>519241316
They lost the plot on vaporwave - too many self-loathing troons involved

>>519236208
>Utopian scholastic
Damn so that's what you call this? This was probably the most based thing about the early 00s/late 90s.

>>519235882 (OP)
Was it the fart jokes that did us in, then?

>>519235882 (OP)
Read Spengler, logic is self-defeating.

>>519242161
Logic was proven wrong long ago.

>>519236339
This was peak, following the logic you needed to mutilate this treasure to make it accessible and niggerish to browns and stupid bitches is what ruined everything, and it failed, nowadays nigglets want to be rappers(ists) rather than honorart whites.

>>519242248
Only Blood can defeat logic and its taskmastet Money, only life sustains life, for Blood questions not one's love for one's offspring. The powers created by western civilization will persist against entrophy not because of Money but because of Blood.
