Guest Iain C Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I'm lucky enough to work on London's beautiful South Bank, and I've got a lot of affection for the 1950s and 60s brutalist architecture around here: I understand I'm in a minority here - but I can't stand neo/classical bullshit that gets given so much praise. St. Paul's, I'm looking at you. That's the real ugly building round here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kokeboka Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Not a fan of the building itself, but Hearst Castle has some beautiful interiors (and outdoor pools). I'm lucky enough to work on London's beautiful South Bank, and I've got a lot of affection for the 1950s and 60s brutalist architecture around here: I lived in London for a couple of years and I did come to enjoy some of the architecture on the south bank, but I don't like what the London Eye does to the city landscape.

chim Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Riga has some gorgeous art noveau architecture, highly recommend going there if you're nearby and interested in buildings (or cheap alcohol): Nordic viking churches are just plain badass. Barcelona has some very fascinating art noveau and other styles. But germany has had its shit together for a very long time.. (the below is not an interior of the above, it's a later church) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cichlisuite Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Here are some classics I really like. Fallingwater by Frank Lloyd Wright is a briliant concept and execution: The composition and design of Brasilia by Niemeyer is beaufitul: Someone already posted the railway station in Portugal, made by Calatrava, so here's is another detail: But here is something that really works for me. The amount of thoughtful detail is amazing, yet it seems almost like random ideas thrown together: (it's the chapel in Ronchamp by Le Corbusier) And some Istrian architecture which I adore, and would like to have a house in this style someday (somewhere in Istria of course): Maorian architecture in Europe (mainly in Spain) is beautiful. Like this Alhambra fortress: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
