I grew up in a city full of “unnecessary” ornament and spent a while in a city where everything was turning into absolutely brutalist 5-over-1 apartment blocks.

I grew up in a city full of “unnecessary” ornament and spent a while in a city where everything was turning into absolutely brutalist 5-over-1 apartment blocks. That ornament does a lot to make the place feel welcoming and human.
Mood is a thing that design and ornamentation effects. It is a thing neglected by engineers and capitalists on the whole but it is important.
- scyzoryk_xyz 6y agoIt all depends on the quality of the design and engineering. If you feel alienated and shitty in a place, then it probably wasn’t designed very well. I don’t know where all the “capitalists” come in to the picture as that is a whole other matter.
