What’s the use, finally Islamist will take over

Awful stuff, a blot on our cities and towns.

Rustication only on the ground story please.

HRH Prince Charles 's remarks are particularly relevant today. Thank you for posting these clips

I wonder what Charles' opinion of "Parametric Architecture" is today ? Maybe he has warmed to how beautiful the forms can become in CG? IMO he could take a water colour painting and make into CG...... and see how the computer can be used for creativity? CG = a new deep contribution to utility, efficiency and aesthetics. Zaha Hadid (UK) = the world's #1 architectural firm? Still, there are other trajectories for development too. Imagine applying the same high-quality of robotically manufactured vehicles to modular architectural elements ! Futuristic Ergonomic Architecture = Beautiful

This is 11 years ago and its still the same bullshit being built every day

We should call it Fast Architecture.

I wish it actually looked like this, the place looks like a dump now..

HE WAS VERY RIGHT BACK THEN AND IS EVEN MORE SO NOW IN 2023!

Too much for such acreage, but what do I know not owning islands.

❤

Really wonderful! It will take time to rebuild also other historical cities, to get rid from the ugly socialist modern architecture.

One big downside of living here is the number of dogs and irresponsible owners who let them shit everywhere. It makes a disgusting mess of an otherwise beautiful place.

"Was the lack of skilled craftsmen" Bullshit. There was a housing shortage and the way to sort it out was by mass producing buildings able to house more people better. Adam Something has an excellent video on the subject.

Tradition is Peer Pressure from Dead People.

Modern cities feel dystopian in my opinion. They destroy the feeling of identity and community and make you feel like you are just a small part of a large machine. No beauty whatsoever. Just huge tectonics that hide the sun and crush your soul.

The new Chelsea Barracks was a shit hole. No heating , no drainage. Served there in 1975/6.

it might be boring and ugly ( not mentioning the fact that beauty is subjective), but it is the one who save billions of lives, including the vast majority of the people who was bitching in the comments. We should have some respect to it.

Not bad for a couple of working-class boys from Shepherds Bush.

Several of the buildings you presented in your video are actually brutalist and post-modernist architecture. While you can dislike modernism, please be more accurate

Parasitic. Good term. It is also fitting how they build profit boxes, but uses pictures of the old cozy houses and classical design landscapes in the area to sell it.

This video made my day! If only there could be a new Renaissance in Architecture. How beautiful the world would be.

I don't mind the Shard as far as tall glass buildings go. But the myriad structures erected in The City and Canary Wharf are truly awful and a complete affront to London's aesthetic. I'm not saying they should have been 'heritage' style, but they could at least be attractive/interesting to look at and designed to add character to the skyline.

Glad the will of the people won thanks to Prince Charles and something more beautiful that will stand the test of time is being built

Love this very witty

I love this! Utterly charming.

We need a new Renaissance of classically-inspired architecture. We're living in a Dark Age right now.

This development gives me hope. We are currently living in an Architectural Dark Ages where everything hideous is decried novel. Ugliness is upheld as a standard. We need a new Renaissance in Architecture, a rebirth of the classic ideal.

It's not quite picturesque, as a gothic castle should be. Quinlan Terry is probably more accomplished doing classical architecture.

God bless those who have put this into being! My goodness l would love to live there

Bring back beauty....long live the rebirth of culture.

The rise of the proles is well described here.

Good video, let's keep building traditional architecture to make it beautiful.

We need a new Roman Empire to teach these architects a lesson

All the buildings are excellent and their architects deserve my applause! Here in Brazil, modernism invaded the minds of architects due to the search for "consulting houses" and not houses where the revivalist architectural style is in vogue. The truth that architecture students don't learn about architectural history in colleges. Sad truth! Here in Brazil we had great names of eclectic and neoclassical architecture, one of them is the late Ramos de Azevedo. Unfortunately, here in Brazil, everyone gives credit to Oscar Niemeyer, in this architectural funeral bet that was Brasília, in the urban sphere, and which does not carry any beauty in its architectural conception.

Modern Bath.... Just FKN awful......

We should start a movement, we cant let modern architecture win. We should destroy modern architecture, no more ugliness, only let beuaty come into place.

What too few people comment on is that modernist architecture isn't beautiful. That's the central argument. People need beauty.

show the shlaatz the real reality not this bullshit

1:53 I believe that's Hengelo (the Netherlands), I pass this ugly ass building by train weekly and it causes severe depression for just the fraction of time that I can observe it. Speaking of Hengelo in general, it's probably the best city to define this video. To be honest, just don't visit the Netherlands at all if you don't enjoy the resemblance of some real-life 'modded Minecraft creative server' that has been demolished by 9-year-olds.

What once were regular places have now become tourist attractions... can't guess why though

I'm loving that someone has made a Tribute video for him! He designed our house, which was built by a small local developer. We can't say enough good things about him, the attention to detail in the way he lays out a house is amazing.

The people who designed such horrible constructions do not have to live in them

You criticize architecture, but You can't tell a difference between modernism and postmodernism.

If aesthetically pleasing was a building!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yay ! Long live the rich !

"A place built for people, not for cars". But there are cars everywhere! It's full of cars. The architecture is boring, sterile and silly. The eighteenth century finished over 200 years ago and someone needs to tell this to HRH Prince Charles.

Truman High School, Independence Missouri.

This is so sad.

Architects hate Poundbury because it stands against everything they believe in, and the general public love it
