What happened to traditional architecture?
>>
Well, it's a long story, but here goes.

A veeeery long time ago, in the heart of Europe, an experiment was begun to see what would happen if a race of moneylenders could be bred using peasants from the Middle East....

Nothing.

Architechture was never traditional in the sense what you mean by that. It was always what materials were available and what people knew as a driving force and not the false song of nationalism like you assume.

The exchange of ideas and technologies greatly reduced the cost of building while improved safety and accessibility too.

A culture's beliefs and values are reflected in their architecture, when you see traditional japanese buildings you know they're japanese, they weren't built the way they were solely because they used what materials they had available, the curved roof resembles phoenix wings etc. same with any other culture

Germany was united because the traitorous Adolphe Thiers handed Paris to them because he had to deal with Commies in 1871. Don't think you can fool me on history filthy kraut.
Germany was founded in Versailles, and a lot of innocent French blood was spilled by the German Army then. Only the general Gambetta didn't submit. Germany is a non-factor in this equation.

The elbe-philharmony is actually pretty neat.
Was placed and intgrated on an older building that was left intact mostly making it look like a sensible fusion of old and modern.
Also while the price is incredible, it will be one of the worlds best in return, attracting foreigners from greater states and powers to instill awe and respect in what europeans can still achieve culturally.

It's more expensive than concrete. Not that it's expensive per see, but concrete is dirt cheap, and it's faster too.

Concrete is one of the cancers of the modern world. It made it too easy for anyone to build homes and infrastructure without much effort, and it caused populations to soar.

I found out recently that a lot of Paris still looked like that in the late 1880s or so until some architect or something decided to demolish the entire city and fill it with the buildings that all look exactly the same. I always thought that it looked like it does now because it was flattened in a war or a massive fire, or the old buildings had gone out over the centuries. Feels bad.

well thats the excuse they use anyway. the problem is so many people say they like modern architecture but it literally makes every city look the same i honestly dont understand what they like. is it the flat, smooth, plain surfaces? the lack of detail? the cold glass and steel? the "abstract" and jarring shapes? you cant tell the difference between a shopping centre, a gym or somebody's house it all looks like fucking mish-mashed lego. this really depresses me, perhaps more than it should.

i blame a lack of education and understanding of history, the things that makes us unique and the world beautiful

>>139103840

>>139105563
I have two friends who are both artists. One does all the contemporary bullshit, and the other traditional stuff (actually runs the Architectural Revival facebook and twitter pages).

They constantly clash over what can be considered art and they both seem to have teased out that contemporary art is made to appeal to people within the modern art culture. Instead of wanting to create something beautiful, they rather create something of a meme, with sort of inside jokes that only their people will get.

This could be the same for modern architecture. It doesnt want to be beautiful, it wants to be different. It doesnt want to appeal to the public, it wants to appeal to other architects who all believe theyre "pushing the boundaries".

Then theres also the fact that traditional architecture served a political purpose, in that it sought to project the power of an empire, or create a distinct style of a city. Modern architecture is primarily functional. Most new apartment buildings are "machines for living".

>>139103243
nonsense you are talking out your arse. architecture was used to inspire. to conjure up emotions amongst people, most often those at the top.
look at baroque and gothic architecture for example. they are purposefully extravagant and over the top. look at all our old statues and monuments, theres nothing practical or useful about them they are for the public to enjoy.
we live in a time where profit and money is valued above all else and lazy, uninspired, talentless people are allowed to erect horrible monstrosities in our living spaces

>What happened to architecture
In Hungary, the pattern was like this:
In the 20s, the government pushed Neo-Baroque as the preferred architecture style instead of Art Deco. This was due to political reasons, the US was an entente power, and the government didn't want anything from countries that fucked up Hungary after WWI.
So they sent the architects to German schools, where Bauhaus started, which started the slippery slope, bauhaus became the main architecture style in the 30s, with a national undertone (coat of arms/soldier murals on the buildings, etc.). 30s Bauhaus was simple, but symmetrical, it was kind of nice in its own way.
After the commies toke over, the real chaos begun: Stalinism was the only accepted style, but the Hungarian architects didn't know what Stalinism was, so they mixed Classicism and Modernism. After Stalin's death, modernism/brutalism became the only preferred style commieblock constructions started, and "experimental" apartments were built. Domes and ornaments were destroyed on old houses, due to political reasons.
In the 90s, there was a split in Hungarian architecture: Some preferred a more conservative/organic architecture style, and others wanted to push the Western modernist/post-modern style.
After 2010, (most likely due to pressure form the government) extreme architecture styles were stopped, only cube/traditional shaped buildings are accepted, while there's a push for traditional reconstructions.
in short: things started to go shit in the 30s, and this process was accelerated by the commies.
