Imo Louis Vuitton is a masterpiece, but lowkey the bank building he did in Berlin by the Brandenburg gate is a wonderful gem
to be nerdy about architecture for a sec,
One of the things that's key in a building is navigation. From the entry you should see exactly where to go. From there the next point should be visible etc. even if this means flying stairs and hovering program CHUNKS, whatever!
The building should WORK
For so many reasons I'm infinitely glad that I went to art school, not book school

This is the equivalent of asking a fortune teller to do your homework for you lol
If she didn't run as a Republican against a Republican she probably would have been more successful. Like by not saying shit about how she would be harsher on immigration than trump or how she'd have the most lethal military. Just sayin, just some thoughts here

There is however a dual need for both cheap (but nice), simple housing, AND iconic cultural buildings which create a sense of local identity. Those buildings, if paid by the state though should still WORK. It's possible, if the building isn't treated as a brand
The latter definitely. Very sad atmosphere
