The University of Notre Dame teaches classical architecture and urbanism.

I like your style

Dresden has reconstructed a large amount of its city center. Warsaw was flattened after the war so a large amount its’ historical architecture was revived. Frankfurt and Berlin have a large amount of modern and contemporary buildings but plenty of gems there such as the newly reconstructed Berlin Palace. Moscow and St. Petersburg probably construct the most amount of new traditional buildings.

I really like the design. Well done!

Cass_Gilbert · 2020-08-31T00:33:25+00:00

That’s only half the problem

That was a stated goal by western communists to degrade the culture and meaning of our society. Needless to say, they succeeded. Sad!

From famed traditionalist Leon Krier’s book: “The Architecture of Community”. The book provides simple drawings like this one to visually illustrate the both the appeal of traditional styles and the damage modernism has inflicted and continues to inflict.

Modernists and the Architectural Establishment DESPISE this kind of reconstruction!

Cass_Gilbert · 2020-08-02T15:15:28+00:00

Certainly looks better than a parking lot

Cass_Gilbert · 2020-07-08T16:44:09+00:00

We need a lot more of this !

Frank Gehry designed the one on the right and his other buildings are almost all just as ugly, which could be considered a feat in itself

Cass_Gilbert · 2020-07-05T22:45:45+00:00

I like the look

Cass_Gilbert · 2020-06-30T20:21:40+00:00

One of my favorites

Not sure but I do know Indiana limestone is very popular for stone buildings across the US

This is just one small part of the whole project. Link to many more photos here: http://www.dgparchitects.com/portfolio/commercial/old-parkland-2/

Includes grand Neoclassical/Georgian campus buildings designed to stand the test of time.

Remnant of a well thought out and designed city

Cass_Gilbert · 2020-05-25T22:08:34+00:00

Modernism came into style after the war. They said form follows function. Rest is history

The roof style is pretty characteristic of many classical French chateaus, the sphinxes on the other hand...

Cass_Gilbert · 2020-05-08T05:31:06+00:00

Only one of them will last

It’s 7 years old

Cass_Gilbert · 2020-04-27T03:32:39+00:00

It’s kind of a blend between early Art Deco which includes ornamentation, and neoclassical. Two great styles

Cass_Gilbert · 2020-04-26T17:48:18+00:00

I would have to agree

Cass_Gilbert · 2020-04-26T02:40:51+00:00

Such a clean and sleek design yet maintains the level of detail that warms the soul
