I don’t get why people say these buildings look depressing. They look dope to me. Unite d’habitation is the name of it.
I argue that Brutalism is inherently marxist, and is necessary for a classless and collectivist society
Red Vienna’s housing architecture gets overlooked too much on Chapo:

Soviet Constructivist is also cool, looks way nicer than brutalism
For newer examples of Viennese housing, I present to you Wohnpark Alterlaa
Diagonal symmetry means no adjacent bedrooms?? genius
My boss loves brutalist architecture but I’m scared to talk about it with him in the event I get made.
Unfortunately, the original Unité d’Habitation by Le Corbusier in Marseille has turned into a bourgeois swamp :(.
They ruin everything
