    So what's your favorite kind of architecture? Modern? Victorian? Weird?

    My favorite kind is the modern one, made mostly of glass! Vancouver is full of buildings like that!

    Genetic.

    Actually, I like almost anything from 1700 AD or earlier in England, and also Québec City (Old Ville). Louisberg aussi. Ca fait aussi bien des edifices anciennes à France.

    also i love tibetan buildings, but not just because of how the construction and design of the building turns out, also because of where the building is placed. the area is very important.

    Anyway, I love the old Gothic towers of Eastern Europe & Germany. I love drama in architecture. I hate modernist. Give me a blackened Czech castle anyday over a glass tube.

    go to advanced post. click the little image icon that looks like a yellowish postcard. then a url bar will come up, get a picture from google images, click view image so that the link has only that image with no text. like this below.

    http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~lamdoo/pictures/bio/chewbacca.jpg


    enter the link into the url bar but delete anything before www. and then post it.


    peace.

    I love gothic architecture. There's something so beautiful about it. I can't stand that wierd glass/metal modern architecture.

    I'm rather fond of structuralist architecture. But damned if I can find any good pictures.

    After that, I'd have to say, neoclassical.
