That proposal was an architectural crime. Kind of like how the Pompidou is (except I secretly kind of love how absurd that building is, perfect for modern art).

And yeah, I only like brutalism in the correct context. I feel like architecture really needs to be contextual, to highlight what it is the building is for and where the building is. I kinda dig brutalist houses to look at, but I would never want to live in one. And if someone built one in my neighborhood I would be a little pissed off.

I like a lot of novelty stuff though (I've got a real thing for geodesic domes), just as long as it has a consistent vision and is doing something for a reason. It's why I don't like most McMansions, there's no thought put into it.

There were brutalist buildings at my school that I kinda liked, and also I saw a brutalist prison once from a distance and I thought it was fitting too. They both worked for the same reason.
