Yes, we should have new architecture that's just as intricate and beautiful as Gothic. It's time to move on, and not settle for either lamenting on the past or mediocrity like "modern art" today

Thank god. Gothic architecture is shit. All examples of it should be destroyed. The same goes for brutalism, too.
>All examples of brutalism should be destroyed.
Stupid. I agree that most brutalist buildings are just not aesthetic, but some others are pretty decent. You just haven't seen the right examples.
I mean, this is nice and has an interesting structure and all that, but it's too simple, and we have seen too much of the same.
And just what are those right examples?
>those outer parts
Looks unsafe as fuck
That's communism for you.
>ib4 that's not brutalism
Yes it is. Brutalism comes from 'breton brute', which is raw concrete. Everything made primarily with raw concrete is brutalism.
Raw concrete always look better combined with wood and/or nature, be it green or white.
Simple, yes, but it's well designed and made with quality constructions.
