I weep in my mind silently every time I see a box-style glorified prisons building they call "apartments" or "suites" or "homes".

Roger Scruton said a few decades ago that changing the architecture of a country made one forget the history, culture and identity of a people. And he was absolutely correct.

"Architectural Jihad"! What a superb couplet to describe some of the monstrostities performed by contemporary 'architects'. Well-spoken, PJW.

I’m in OC California and I noticed this trend which began around about 2009. The powers that be were trying to make the aesthetic of poverty suddenly hip and cool and I saw through it immediately. People began wearing tattered, blown out clothing with holes in them. “Shabby chic” was a phrase you would hear. The new apartment buildings going up in Irvine looked like they belonged in the Eastern Bloc. A stark contrast to the luxe Mediterranean style which had been popular up to that point. They would tear down things that were ornate or stylish and replace them with things that were blocky and basic. I’d even see it with fonts on shopping centers. When they did it to my mailbox I was livid because I knew it was an omen of things to come. I didn’t like the hideous blocky Communist mailbox and I’m not down with the impoverisation of America.
There were trendy plazas like The Lab, which to me looked pretty much like it belonged in a trailer park. Anything opulent or ornate is somehow uncool and the minimalistic look of poverty is cool, I have no idea how they’ve gotten away with hoodwinking us like this. Do a web search to look at Balenciaga’s runway show from 2006 and then look at it today. The pandemic always was an economic weapon of mass destruction but when its 2030 and I own nothing, I will not be happy and I will be putting multigenerational curses on everyone involved.
Also, with the pandemic they got us to accept eating our meals outside in parking lots like we were homeless street people. I’m so sick of this bs.

I’m American and yes, I’m constantly watching the city I live in turn into a battle ground for the traditionally-inspired and modernist architecture.
Thankfully we have newer buildings that still hold a traditional style while still pleasing the modernists, but one polished, stainless steel building nearly got me in a car accident because it was reflecting the sun in my eyes.

This architecture style is called “Early Nothing”. There is a fantastic documentary called “Why Beauty Matters”, wrote and narrated by sir Roger Scrutton regards this issue that realy shows how dramatic is the lack of beauty in our life. Here in Brazil and specialy in São Paulo, where I live, we suffer the ugliness of the modern architecture all around the city.

The modern art videos Paul makes are hilarious. The architecture ones are kind of scary. It’s easy to avoid a crappy museum or performance art, but these buildings dominate the landscape and make people feel helpless. That power station was so beautiful on its own.

In my student years I used to travel from Wimbledon to Waterloo Station and I always watched the Battersea power station and thought how impressive it was. That was during 1989/1990. This summer I did the same travel and I hardly could see the station, then I realized where one of the chimneys was and discovered it was that small reddish building surrounded by hundress of huge glass buildings!I couldn't believe all its magnificient presence was vanished in such a way!

I actually broke out into a chuckle when you went from the serene Shire music to the aggressive Isengard march. Modern man and his stupidity at destroying all that is good just for progress' sake is exactly what Tolkien was trying to warn us about.

One of the things I loved when in England was the history. I loved all the historical buildings and walking through the old churches. I think my grandmother and my great grandmother would be horrified to see this. Glad they passed years ago before all this. They were from Oxford and my great grandparents used to have a successful bakery in London a long time ago. I think they sold it in the 80's.
What's happening to housing in the US is shoddy building. They got scab workers to pump out FOMO factory brand new housing and the places are falling apart. People have been forced to leave these homes because they need to be condemned. Then the artificial bubble. It's a horrible mess here. Just search - Newly-built homes deemed unlivable due to sliding soil . There's other stories but that will give you an idea.

I used to do trucking and delivery jobs into London when I was in the UK it’s a dystopian hell hole. I was asked questions by someone I worked with around my age who was in his early twenties and he said he has never been outside of greater London it seemed he barely knew anything about anywhere outside of London. I feel horrible for anyone who has to live there. If you visit it’s only worth visiting the historical sites

I happen to like art deco buildings, not so much the outside , but when you step inside of one they are simply stunning. Here in Melbourne we have the last remaining art deco cinema left in Australia. Thankfully a past state government put a heritage listing on it , then spent millions on restoring it to its full grandeur

Nailed it Paul. These buildings and their message make my eyes scream. And many don't even see it happening. But then they're collapsing from experimental medicine and buying 600k boxes so why would they have the ability to comprehend art in any form.

So glad you featured the University of Minnesota art museum at 9:15. I was a student on campus when it was built. Before it was built, the students generally agreed that the Architecture Building was the ugliest on campus. Then the Art department said "hold my beer" and surpassed it in ugliness, moving right past hideous and into vomit inducing visual trauma.

My university had some beautiful old buildings no longer including on that only lived in photographs. The new building were monstrosities. One looked like the lunar lander with a long ramp leading to the street. It was so big that people thougjt it was for automobiles and would drive up it when it was really for wheelchairs. The school put pillars in the front so people would stop driving up it.

They built prisons like this in Antwerp and a huge part of it collapsed. I'm a lawyer and some other appartements also turned out to have a lot of building errors. It's an endless source of lawsuits and misery. I just want a tiny house or a little attic room in a cosy street.

Not sure if the scene of the archetype English home and garden juxtaposed with the massive block rising behind was real but along with the music of the Shire vs Uruk-hai is friekin' brilliant. Keep up this sort of exposure and, who knows, we could gain some ground. Well done Sir Paul! Many greetings from what used to be the United States of America.

I'm excited to be working with them the

research for this video I came across
4:29
this story about the U.S housing market
4:31
in ground news it says that according to

economists a housing recession has

already arrived let's take a closer look

the business journals headline is what
5:03
economists are predicting for the

really helpful how ground news shows
