People do occasionally order buildings to be done in an older style that most enjoy. You know what happens afterwards? The architect involved gets ostracised. It’s “grotesque” apparently.
The problem is absolutely the architects and their profession. They are no longer producing buildings that people enjoy but rather caters to their own perverted aesthetical sense of pride.
- coffeemig 5y agoHow do we get a government referendum on aesthetics?
- Oddskar 5y agoWhy would you need one? Do we need referendums in software for usability? No, we do not. We test with users and accommodate their needs and wants. That architects have strayed away from this is crazy.
- ollifi 5y agoSo the theory is that the entire profession of architects is against constructing buildings people actually want? Or that times have changed and we lack the environment and infrastructure to achieve what we once could do.
- Oddskar 5y agoIt's not a theory in EU at least. It's a fact. You think it's some arcane knowledge to make buildings beautiful? It's not. They're still occasionally made this way like I said. They just don't want to do it.
