I dunno, I actually like the sandwich building!
bread building
bread buildingi don’t understand
is the implication that brutalism does take inspiration from random objects and people dislike it because of that?
A lot of modern architects in the West hate Brutalism because “it’s boring”, “dystopian”, and insert generic “commies bad” remark. Ignoring that brutalist architecture arised in Socialist countries as a solution for quickly and efficiently building many homes to solve a housing crisis. They have similar views toward sustainable, “eco-minimalist” buildings because again, it lacks their precious ornamentation.
Meanwhile, they design buildings that look like sandwiches and other insane things.
idk, i’ve never heard ppl say these things about brutalism 🤔
maybe a somewhat similar sentiment in protest of high-rise and boring social housing, which happened to have a somewhat brutalist style, but never brutalism itself
if anything, some of the most interesting brutalist works are located in western countries such as england and japan
Brutalism is associated with communism?

You’ve made an enemy of every architecture forum user. There is nothing they hate more than Brutalism, with modern contemporary style at a close second, eco-minimalism at the third. “Hurr durr buildings that look similar is dystopian!”

While the trees are nice, they look more like mold in the sandwich context
