@frickhaditcoming photo on the left is of the conservatory in the barbican performing arts centre in London.
Photo on the right is a building in Barcelona
@GreenandBlack ppl often act all scared when they see images like this
or at least nihilistic but
idk to me it seems like a nicer place to live we should have plants everywherepls
@Mooncake cities shouldn't be built solely for humans, they should be built to fit all life that inhabits it
@GreenandBlack @Sylvhem Yeeeeeeessssss. I love this aesthetic. Ground cover spilling over the top of a concrete wall is 😙👌.
@GreenandBlack last aesthetic of humanity
@GreenandBlack can't wait for that future
@GreenandBlack is this solarpunk
@GreenandBlack I dream of a future that looks exactly like this
@GreenandBlack at last, brutalism makes sense
@GreenandBlack I think I'm in love! 🤩
@GreenandBlack swear i saw this area in Nier Automata :o
@GreenandBlack There's a brutalist office building-turned-hotel near my workplace that tried to jazz things up by adding color and banners during the conversion, but this is so much better!
@GreenandBlack I should've said "tried to spruce things up."
KawaiiPunk @GreenandBlack I broke into that conservatory once by mistake.
@GreenandBlack i love this so much but i believe they must utilise native plants rather than just very pretty ones (not that natives cannot be very pretty, just that humans have a knack for preferring non-native plants) for it to truly benefit everyone
that said, the tropical plants are absolutely gorgeous
@GreenandBlack This is exactly what Sao Paulo gets right about brutalism, and exactly what London (mostly) gets wrong about it.
@GreenandBlack this but with native species for the environment the building is in and I am 9001% on board.
@GreenandBlack that is actually really nice
@GreenandBlack this is the kind of brutalism i can get behind
@GreenandBlack Reminds me of jungle covered lost Mayan cities.
@GreenandBlack The parking deck for portland's airport is kinda like that and it's sweet.
@GreenandBlack Brutalism was made for the jungle: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/15/t-magazine/tropical-brutalism.html
@GreenandBlack what is/was that?
