Gothic architecture. So much extra work to sculpt all the spires, gables, grotesques and archways, for zero added functionality. But they look dope as fuck.
That’s a good one! The level of detail in gothic architecture is insane and gorgeous. I love seeing curves and rounded shapes in architecture in general. As for brutalism, I’ve seen some creative things done with this style too, although of course its advantages are durability and affordability rather than aesthetics. The modern minimalist trend in architecture where everything is beige/white/grey is what I dislike most.

Incidentally I hate brutalist architecture.

Fully agree! It’s so much work and so incredible to look at and admire. Art deco too for the same reasons.
