Good morning you rocket-fuel leopards.

(yes I know Steinman wrote the lyrics, Meat Loaf still represents Midwestern working class dreams as well as Wagnerian transcendental heroism)
LMAO. Meatloaf as a Midwestern Wagnerian hero. đź‘Ť
Honestly this is a great start to a day.^
Yep
university library has “upgraded” yet another old-style wood-furnished reading room with modern crap
*remember what they took from us*
@Alex Kolchak - NY I hate modern furniture.
everything must look like a &$@! %#€ Apple Store
“Modern” furniture peaked with Art Deco. Everything since then was a mistake.
@ophiuchus Even that is ugly. Particularly the ratio of the thickness of the legs to the overall size of the desk.
there will be no such “furniture” in the ethnostate
we will stand with poise and dignity at all times
Eh, I like it. We definitely have bigger fish to fry than “the ethnostate’s official interior design policy.” It’s a bit hard to be super traditional with *personal* decorating- easy to make it look too stuffy or grandmaish. Gutting handmade, antique furniture to replace it with laminated particleboard is a crime though.
I’m just joking
and after all, the modern aesthetic was once popular on the right
look at some of the Italian and German art of the interwar period (not referring to the Weimar-era trash, obviously)
a lot of it glorified speed, technology, etc
Art Deco’s always struck me as a very American style. Architecture should always be vernacular, imo. It’d be odd to drop a Bavarian style house (which are fantastic in their element) in Long Island, for example. God, anything’s better than the “soul crushing megalith of concrete and exposed steel” everything’s done in now though.
“Beige box revival.”
Modern architecture has the very rare potential to be alright- if the element suits it.
It looks just. Awful. Smashed next to an older, objectively better looking building though, as you see a lot in older cities.
That cross the traditional building is holding is quite funny, looks like it's trying to exorcise whatever progressive demon has possessed the building next to it
A lot of media outlets are reporting that RBG was seen at a performance of some kind last week. Do we think that's real?

Happy Valentine's day everyone
Happy Valentine's day, I love my homies
Ok I’m a big architecture nerd
Ruthy ginsbehg is like Bigfoot
So I really want to go back to this convo
I swear I saw her today
Here’s this grainy photo
@The Eternal Anglo That building you posted earlier the trad one, doesn’t look like it would be “right” to put in America
Strikes me as distinctly a European architectural style
At worst I think she’s dead and they wait a couple days to announce. But if I disagree with the msm I’m a wacko
What’s more American than the classic two story farmhouse? Or the plantation house of the south or the thatched houses of the New England coast
But if we’re talking cities then I’d say Art Deco for sure
Like the Empire State Building
At least in America
