It exceeded 10 stories and become affordable.
If you had to built a fucking building yourself user you'd realize all that old world architecture costs a fortune in materials and takes a long time to build.

What happened to art - sculpting, painting, etc?
What happened to music?

Anything that takes true talent to create is being socially engineered away. No one can be better than anyone else. No one can look different from anyone else. Creativity must be destroyed to protect the power structure.

Your retard grandparents happened.

Architectural engineer here. Many architects have turned into glorified project managers and accountants. They know nothing technical, even with all the advanced modeling and cool parametric design options they are completely dull and bland, just ploping down different cladding systems next to and on top of eachother. There's no art involved anymore, no style, no theme, no heart.

It's really fucked. Goddamn kikes.

Good thing I just keep the buildings from leaking or blowing apart, I have no responsibility for the shit nigger tier choices they make.

Pic related is a metal panel we saw on the drawings and told the architect and owner this wasnt going to work across such a tall span. We have nothing to do with aestetics, but sometimes try to help. We were ignored. Now it looks a thousand different kinds of fucked depending on the light and angle you look at it. The owner refuses to accept the condition now heh.

Funny, if you wanted to start a new society with grand spaces and architecture like that, you would need some experts in masonry.

Hey dirt mover. I did civil at Texas but then got a job doing envelope architecture. Took my PE in architectural engineering, thank God I switched.

jews with their small shop owner iq and mentality, but huge egos happened

>architectural engineer

Like being a Muslim European

>There's no art involved anymore, no style, no theme, no heart.
To be fair all critical architecture has always been about making structures as fast & cheap as possible.
Look from the aqueducts of southern europe, the great wall, the inca cities. All of them are bland, flat as possible & lack a significant amount of grandeur for most building. Only religious, home of the wealthy and high government buildings have ever been invested to look as prominent & decadent as possible.

The new building isn't exactly at odds with the other architecture of the area,. Its Sweden, not Vienna.

And what a beautiful old building that prison was.

>old world architecture costs a fortune in materials and takes a long time to build
I'm pretty sure there are firms who schtick is old-world charm inexpensively
And don't kid yourself, modern architecture costs and arm, a leg, and your child's foreskin

At some point during the interwar period people decided to sacrifice all aesthetics for utility.

fucking jews man

But that's not a good thing.

As this guy says, when you make an ugly, disgusting building, it loses its value since no one wants to use said building. When you sacrifice art for utility, you lose both.

good news, the cross will be build

Many buildings in Europe got damaged/destroyed during ww2 and had to be rebuilt quickly with cheap designs, as restoration of the old style would’ve been to time consuming and expensive. This led to a shift inarchitectural taste in the new generation and helped cause acceptance for ahit architecture.

Lol, no it's more like being the only one capable of doing algebra in a room full of people being paid $150k/year.

The heating and cooling have changed, plumbing and electricity. The amount of regulation is also something that makes certain things impractical.

People were still building nice stuff by the late 19th century but then the Modernist movement started in Europe and started having little to no detail in any architecture
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_architecture#Early_modernism_in_Europe_(1900–1914)
Basically, the modernist philosophy was that we don't need all the fancy and detailed facades, pediments, arches, etc. They just felt if we can keep it as minimal as possible while still functioning then they're good.
People didn't like it

>Fell for the college meme

t. Engineering Consultant

They always have. The thing is architects dont sit around with pen and paper coming up with grand beautiful designs, instead they copy paste cad and models.
Ornament has also changed on buildings, it used to be used in small bits to accent the building. Modernists use the entire facade for ornament and it has become a box competition instead of inserting geometric shapes and sculptures here and there for decorative effect.

What? Are you an engineering consultant without a PE?

t. Licensed Engineer

Are you under the impression that buildings were made for free in ye olden days?
It wasn't some magical fairy wonderland where people would wish for beautiful buildings and a generous wizard would come into town and create architectural art just to see the smiles on the people's faces

Don't forget the architects on the day of the rope. They should be among the first to hang.

so instead of destroying generic shitty nordieblocks that surrounded the one nice building, you destroy the one nice building in order to conform to shitty nordieblocks?
bravo sir
