Why did modernism fail?
because the desire for aesthetics always gives way to simple practicality
it's why future conceptual artists always present a world that is almost unattainable
governments rarely put high priority on aesthetics

>Why did modernism fail?
it hasn't. more modernist architecture is being designed and constructed every year
>>38948739
most people consider this style ugly and unappealing
i don't know about anyone else, but once i got a real job i just want to do the easiest thing and get home and watch some anime before i cry myself to sleep.
rectangular boxes with walls that stack are where it's at.

This building is pretty interesting
what do you think about it
>>38948739
I mean modernism as a philosophical approach to life. Why did utopianism and utilitarianism and etc. modernist ideals lose popularity after the 20th century?
>>38948795
it looks like fucking garbage lmao
wait can someone post some modernist buildings vs some post modernist buildings
>>38948795
It looks awful. I think architects who design buildings that have large blank slabs of concrete with hardly any widows should stick to military work. They have no imagination, no soul and no ingenuity. Just depressing. It's like they want the people who will work in the buildings they design to kill themselves.

Focus your attention towards this post please
>>38948739
incorrect, modern architecture died in the 70s, our current times are called contemporary architecture, which is based a lot on the modernist movement tho.
>>38948688
modernism, at least in architecture and urbanism, died because the movement was based on the separation of functions and the mechanization of human living, people realized in half of the XXth century that it was creating more problems than it was solving. Modern architecture was lacking in humanity, most of the times.

I think these look awesome

Who says it failed?
It was about European architectural theorists trying to out-hip each other with convoluted sociopolitical theories that barely tied into architecture. American academics took their bullshit really seriously, and now we have cities of gray boxes dreamed up by old German hipsters instead of a real architectural identity.

the internet ruined everything, including our cultural ideals.

Doesn't look bad, might look better with some pink light shining on it

Those look like shit, mainly the colors
>>38950669
I should add that that the buildings posted in this thread are super postmodern. Here is a modernist building.
>>38948830
Because women found out they can fuck Chad by posting duck face selfies on the Internet, and any man who wants some pussy must kowtow to their ridiculous demands.
tl;dr feminism
>>38950669
pretty sure that brutalist architecture started with Le Corbusier

This would have looked alright if it was a full pyramid without that concrete tumor growing out of it.
>>38948688
>it was never meant to suceed
It was just a bunch of sci-fi nerds that graduated architecture school, got stoned and formed a global cabal to fuck up as much society as they could get away with. They are laughing to the bank and retiring somewhere where the architecture style hasnt changed for 1000yrs
>>38948795
i think it looks very nice!
