Well, it seems You have reinvented and revived the so-called "Brutalism-Architecture". It was a dominant Style in the Post-Soviet Time and Area, but also in Austria and even America. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Brutalist_architecture_in_the_United_States
But Yours is much better and the intended harsh Effect is soothened by the perfect Embedding into Nature! Great Work!
Thanks for the link and the definition! I have to admit, the term was foreign to me and I only know of something similar from Albert Speer's megalomaniac projects from the Nazi era, which were probably similar...but not as stylistically playful as my pictures - they would probably never have been realized in this form as degenerate (architectural) art. I still remember such sober, large-format building forms from the Soviet era in the 50s and 60s, along with the martial giant paintings of the victorious Soviet army... :)
True, true! While the old Brutalist-Buildings aimed to inspire Awe and Fear, yours are far more light and elegant, and if I see that correctly, wear a light Self-irony, which makes them sympathic. Thats why we should name Your own Style: "Post-Brutalism", beause it superseeds and overcomes the humorless old Style? :)
Not necessary to know: My personal Favourite is the Wotruba-Church/ Vienna. https://architectuul.com/architecture/wotruba-church Its a raw Mass of Concrete outwards, but inside "enlightened". I have the Blueprints secured for remodelling in Blender, but think about to rebuild it in Your Style! ;)
Hi Chris! Well, let's see...maybe I can contribute to the realization of the Wotruba idea, but you'll have to wait until tomorrow until I can render Leonardo images again. I'm curious to hear your verdict...see you soon! :) Lutz
Good 'ol Brutalismus. Reminds me of the college I went to. Even the library had this style. Kinda nothin' looking on the outside but treasure within.
As for "Post-Brutalism", well, you all know my proclivities. I'd have it covered in vines like some sort of lost ruin, post-apocalyptic style. That'd be pretty much post-everything, the books within long looted and hoarded in some wasteland monestary, or used as kindling.
