They fell for the internationalist style meme and tried to fix it with Bjaerk Ingels deconstructivism

Basically a clusterfuck of nonsense in a very cheap tacky way

Denmark is pretty ugly too. We don't really have any architectural styles like France or England, it's just buildings from different centuries side by side. Minimalism is also popular here

After The Great Chicago Fire, they decided to make the structures of the buildings of steel profiles and without ornamentation and decoration, something to which the Europeans paid more attention. They also based their buildings design on the Renaissance palaces, which were very visually boring (pic related)

Looks nice desu. I like the prevalence of courtyards.

That center area should be greenspace though

This. I'm from New Jersey and my sister goes to med shool near Charleston. Every time I visit I'm shocked by how beautiful the people and architecture are.
>>
>>73974008
Charleston is one of the US' oldest cities. It was around long before the westward expansion and building cities with cars in mind.
>>
>>73962331
literally the only redeeming quality of american architecture styles
>>
>>73962254
We didn't get blown up in WWII, thus didn't have the opportunity to rebuild our cities and make them look fancy. Thus the shitty early 20th century aesthetic.

Fuck you, there's probably fewer pre WW2 buildings left in American cities compared to Europe. You guys just can't city plan for shit and built your whole existence around cars and driving in and out of suburbs

It's a shame the colonial period ended so early, maybe more American cities would look as comfy as this
>>
>>73962849
We do have our own style.

But since inner Copenhagen used to be poor as fuck, only the bridge-quaters have the styled houses.

But in the 60-80 a lot of really ugly concrete shit was erected.
And Sydhavn/Nordhavn/Örestad & Århus & Holbæk, and many more. Have gone full inter-nationalistic in what they erect.
>>
>>73979440
>What is the entirety of middle America??

& I don't know why people always complain about the cars/suburb thing, it's great. Beats having to take the metro with a bunch of Jamals and Ahmeds every day.

is this cities skylines?

>>73979799
I fucking wish USA had kept using the colonial building style. It looks comfy and makes for a better psyche. Helps keep the local community together and make people invested in their town/city.
