@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

This is far more wholesome, economic, versatile, and beautiful than modern atrocities

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?

"Ruth Bader Ginsburg was seen in public Monday. Conspiracy theorists still insist she’s dead." by Eli Rosenburg 🤔

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

I like Mediterranean architecture. It fits well in Florida. The other historic/culture option here is cracker style houses.

Mediterranean architecture here is rooted in Spanish influence, usually wealthy. Cracker style comes from American/English Florida and is more basic as it came from poorer Florida cowboys/pioneers

Can you share some examples?

I think architecture should be almost entirely regional

Modern versions of cracker have been gauded up an fancified, but traditional Florida cracker style houses are basic squares, wraparound porch, metal roof that rises with 4 triangles like a pyramid would, with a smaller roof at the peak that is opened to let breeze in

@NateDahl76 where did you find that last UT article
