I hope you dont do it in a shoddy and plastic looking way.

You do know that castle is nothing like the real buildings it tries to emulate and was built to a madmans specs on what he thought castles should look like?

...

No, in fact I think they went overboard with the reconstruction effort.
They even purchased custom made English stales from Canada. Similar to the ones used for the original riding hall, but they are barely produced anymore.

fuck up nigger, future castles in the uk will be mosques

...

*slates

First combination of classic and modern elements that doesn't make me want to jump of it, but the original roof was still better.

Building a palace to look like a medieval castle was pretty common back then. Pic related.

Hallo Eilyn :)

Holy shit please tell me how you were able to reverse search that image

Bleib entspannt. Du kannst dich relatic leicht selbst doxxen. Rschtsklick auf dein Bild, Google Bildersuche u d schon findet man deininstagram.

I quiet like the incorporation of modern architecture in this pic

Great!
Nah i think some penibility is important as those buildings will stand for a long time and carry great symbolic meanig.
Being a cheapo would bite you in the ass for the next 100 years at least afterall.
Also nothing worse then disney stucko.

Customs House in Dublin
I don't think they even use it much these days

I know this isn't European but it's a nice looking building
I'll admit burgers have the best flag

Nice! it usually goes the other way

It's still a European style of architecture. Interesting mixture of Neo- and stripped Classicism btw.

God I miss continental Europe. The UK is bad enough - if you're not in one of the more expensive areas, there's just red-bricked shithouses everywhere. Now I'm going to move to the US where no house is older than 50 years and is made of wood shingles.

I think once I'm done with a few post-docs, I should head home, the old land is calling for me.

no they don't

>Tympanums are somehow a big deal
wut. They are a pretty generic thing in Classical/Neo-Classical Architecture

The fuck? Why did this get moved?

Because mods on /pol/ are probably closeted faggots

Breaking news: Mods are fgts
But at least thread got deported to Veeky Forums, not /bant/

Durham cathedral

both are awful

they are, but the old one at least wasnt pseudohistorical kitsch.

>pseudohistorical kitsch
Its still kitsch, not FYROM tier kitsch, but still kitsch

>pseudohistorical
That's the original 1923 facade plan, though

Is that really a pump house turned mosque?

>there is a hohenzollern monarch (not reigning) alive today

What's the matter bitch boy, not enough brutalism posts?

The Dampfmaschinenhaus at the Neustädter Havelbucht in Potsdam, Germany, looks like a Turkish mosque but is actually a pumping station in disguise. Its purpose was to accommodate an 81.4 horse power steam engine – a 19th century masterpiece of mechanical engineering – that was used to pump water from the River Havel to the Great Fountains in the Sanssouci Park.

St john's cambridge

The finest piece of neoclassical architecture in my opinion

>I know how much you like your heritage
>t. A 56% goblino

I think he was talking to americans in the first place

There's shit like that from the Greek revival period all around the west

It's kind of the size and age + significance that makes it stand out

The ancient Greek revelation and modern Greek revolution that brought about Hellenic European cultural identity and awareness culminated with the non-stop zerging of Greek revival in every country that supported Greece. There's Walhalla in Germany, the Austrian Parliament building that looks just like the British museum, the Academy of Athens and the National Library, the Royal High school in Edinburgh etc etc
