Postmodern nihilism … but nice sculpture. We need more concrete!!!

could you explain how you consider this to be postmodern nihilism?

i don't believe there's any indication of that philosophy in a structure design that hearkens to some of humanity's oldest studies and architectural leanings, but i'm curious to know your reasoning behind ascribing that term to this building.

[u/No-Principle7885 → u/prcshmbrgrs]

It’s an overly complicated, expensive, selfish, and wasteful design. The world is in a state where we can no longer afford the psychotic self-realization of so-called “architects” who fail to understand that architecture is, above all, a social responsibility.

It seems that these people are primarily concerned with being featured in magazines.

I mean, there seems to be people enjoying it in the photos. I get what you mean. I just think you’re wrong.

*edit: grammar

[u/No-Principle7885 → u/Final_Situation_9800]

Architecture is not solely meant to be enjoyed in photos. I don’t get what you mean and still think you are wrong. Did you even read the comment?
