    To the vast majority, it looks fuck ugly. To me, it looks fuck ugly.

    It only looks good to a niche group of Architectural enthusiasts and Soviet LARPers. There's a reason why the announcement of a brutalist building is usually met with community ire. It's not because they're unenlightened fools, it's because people don't want a lifeless, concrete husk taking up space in the town square.

        lmao @ brutalists calling any other architectural style a monstrosity

        At least neoclassical, while boring, isn't depressing as fuck
