I think art deco is one of my favorites. It still has a clean, modern look that ages surprisingly well, even a century later.

Prairie and Craftsman Bungalows. Unfortunately, I don’t think that either is a particularly energy efficient design.
I want anything that isn’t low effort, bland, inoffensive. I hate modern trend towards boring. I love everything that isn’t landlord white.
I am a sucker for the MCM ranch, with low angular offset roofs and breeze block scape walls
Actual decoration instead of just cheap sheetrock and Metal fixtures.
Also houses for everyone
Waterfall. Agile is a mess.
Nice.
Haussmanian , as in multi-story mixed use buildings : 6 or 7 floors. Bottom floor is for businesses. Top floor is subdivided in small but cheap one bedrooms. Built in an H, O or U footprint with a central courtyard for the whole building to share. Facade can have art nouveau architectural elements but whatever is cheap is good.
Art Nouveau. So much beauty, style and experimentation in only 20 years.
Yes please. Fuck the white grey and black colour scheme of todays interiors.
Art deco.
Use LotR to tell the difference. If it looks like it was made by the elves, it’s art nouveau. It if looks like the dwarves cranked it out, it’s art deco.
Squares are a dead give away for dwarves. Knife ears don’t like square corners.
I was actually responding to OP’s question. I k ow the difference between them 😅
Anything that is not a square shaped shit brick like so much of the past 50 years.
Art deco, full stop.
I have a really big thing for 70s PNW homes done really, really well. The vaulted ceilings, open concept main areas with multiple levels, the sunken living rooms, the cedar used everywhere… just leave out the shag carpet and I’ll be A-OK.
Renaissance exterior of building. Carvings in concrete. Stone block buildings. Gargoyles. Corner decorations on ceilings.
Brutalist
Gorgeous brutalist, not “let’s cut corners and costs” Soviet brutalist, but Le Corbusier tier.
Brutalism. The few brutalist buildings in my city are a welcome respite for the eyes against the blinged out crap they’re building nowadays.
We have some here! Unfortunately, it’s the Soviet style, “cold” brutalist architecture that feels quite hostile. I like the “warm” aesthetic like the DC Metro with the light playing across the waffle ceiling, and the warm, brown hexagonal tile underfoot. This picture appears to be artificially brightened:
Good brutalist architecture can take your breath away. It’s so solid, so permanent, so delightfully uncompromising.
Give me 2, but less mirrors- I’ve spent enough time in hotel lobbies, thank you. But if it were more theatre lobby than hotel lobby, I’m all for it.
I love this style of modern architecture from the late 1960s to early 1980s:
Iono, the first two are a bit much, but I do love the 3rd.
The first two remind me of tacky mafia style hotels and maybe Miami (Tony Montana) or Las Vegas “classy”.
I was thinking the tacky, overly-ostentatious decoration style you see in Russian government buildings, but yeah that fits too.
Aw man, I was about to praise the first two.
It’s architecture/interior design, taste is subjective. Like what you like, I’m not here to yuck anyone else’s yum, just expressing my own opinion.
