Splendid explanation of the state of architecture nowadays! It really is out of despair to be unique and different. We can call these trends. And trends are like fashion, something cool now will be so last decade soon. Also not only people got disinterested in architecture but students themselves, they are not allowed to design anything that can be labeled as "Historicist" it is actively shunned by professors. I think the mindset of "of our time" ruined architecture because it brought us modernist mess that is not even really functional (flat roof in rainy climate?!?) it just SUGGESTS functionality with "clean lines" and no embellishments.

Thank you so much for this video it really helped me understand more the chronological order and relations between these many famous architecture styles, i agree with you at the end no normal human aside from workaholics could function and not be depressed in these modern buildings, Le Corbusier said himself ''une maison est une machine a habiter'' in my opinion this type of architecture was made to force humans into this endless work eat sleep repeat type of lifestyle, its true that le corbusier in villa savoye favorized a very good circulation and the toit terrasse but still that's not offered and applied in the many building complexes we live in nowadays , it saddens me that many university professors still favorize brutal functionalism over human mental sanity.

I appreciate the effort put into covering various architectural styles throughout history. However, I feel that the architecture of the 1900s and onward may not have been represented with full fairness. While I agree with some of the critiques presented, it seems like the period was reduced to its worst examples, especially when discussing contemporary architecture. There are far more styles and nuances at play than just the two mentioned. Given the scale and diversity of buildings being constructed today, this era is arguably one of the most expansive periods in architectural history. I understand there was limited time, but while other styles were given several slides, this broad and evolving period was only briefly showcased. A more in-depth look could really highlight the richness and diversity of modern and contemporary architecture. It’s fair to critique and showcase the shortcomings in modern architecture, but it’s important to remember that not all contemporary buildings are either soulless or composed of baseless forms. There is a wealth of thoughtful, innovative, and meaningful design happening today that deserves recognition. By highlighting only the negatives, we risk overlooking the creativity, context-driven design, and evolving styles that define much of today’s architecture.

Hello, Professor! I'm returning to this video with a few questions that came to mind after letting the information settle and discussing the topic of architecture with a couple of friends. I'm very curious to know if you can explain why, in Gothic cathedrals specifically, we see the walls becoming thinner and gaining support from the outside. I understand the purpose of these supports is to hold up the walls and add to the structural integrity of the building, but what was the reason for making the walls thinner? Was it perhaps to save on materials, which allowed the cathedrals to become significantly larger and more intricate in their fine details? Additionally, I'm very curious if you can explain the difference between Art Nouveau and the Secessionist Style. I've noticed several differences myself, such as Art Nouveau having a much smoother "flow," so to speak, in the overall shape of structures built with that design, as well as being adorned with more organic ornaments, such as an abundance of flowers, leaves, and sculptures of faces integrated into columns, walls, and architraves. In contrast, the Secessionist Style, especially the one often seen in Hungary and the western part of Romania, seems far bulkier, more geometric, and more sparing with ornamentation on the facades. I believe both styles aimed to create something new and to break away from traditional proportions and the classical orders for columns. While they have stark differences, they also share certain common points. I wonder if you could expand more on the differences and similarities between these two styles. I often find myself guessing whether a building is in one style or the other, only to later realize I was mistaken after looking it up online. One last question: Is the reason the Romanesque style is often seen as a "failed" attempt to emulate the classical Roman style due to the setbacks caused by the Dark Ages, resulting in the loss of knowledge required to build in that particular style? I hope these aren't too many questions at once or that they're overwhelming to take in and respond to. Please take your time answering if you see this and intend to! Thank you so much in advance.

thank you! to 1.): no, I guess it is really just the aestetics, the aim to dissolve the wall into colourful light 2.) you think too much in "styles". These were just 2 different attempts. Art Nouveau was inspirired by Japanese paintings, Secessionism, I guess, more by geometric ornament from egypt or greece 3.): I guess, yes, and building technology

After spamming a video with “Israel doesn’t exist” fascist nonsense (Judea and Jewish statehood in the region around Jerusalem predates Islams very birth by over 1000 years) you have some nerve expecting him to give you the honour of a special focus on Islamic history, which while I too was once very interested in, seeing the support for Ruzzia and China despite their own genocides of Muslim’s, while you guys commonly attack the west as a whole for something we don’t even directly support (most western nations support Palestine statehood) has completely destroyed any chance of comfortable discussion on those topics without knowing it will create a whole warzone in the comments

Great video - I especially agree that modern architecture is awful, soul crushing and drab. It really points out how great and beautiful the architecture in the past was. I have a question/request - I'm curious how all of those amazing buildings were built specifically in the Americas. The history seems to point out that all of these brand new settlements in the late 1800s were able to build massive, beautiful buildings in roughly a year's timespan. I imagine one of two things could have made this possible: The records are incomplete - and only mention the completion date - these works of art would take years or decades to produce from skilled craftsmen - or there was a huge industry in the Early Americas that allowed for rapid installation of these great works of art. What happened to those industries? Where did the massive stone / cast iron / statue-carving industries go? A lot of these towns say that they had a population of less than 15,000 at the time the buildings were completed, and they list completion in a year. Do we have any better records of actual construction? Thanks for your video and your time!

@@SebastianvonThaden Wow thanks for your quick reply! A couple of towns to look at: Sioux City, Iowa Harrisburg, Pennsylvania Superior, Wisconsin and especially the cities out West - as I imagine the transportation of goods was even more difficult like: Spokane, Washington Walla Walla, Washington Salt Lake City, Utah (The Tabernacle is incredible for 3-4 years work!) San Diego, California It seems like they must have had an extensive network to be able to move the building materials for all of the grand constructions in the area. Especially looking at State buildings, Churches, Schools, and especially the Asylums. Thanks for digging in!
