minus-squarehuginn@feddit.itlinkfedilinkarrow-up15arrow-down4·7 months agoI love being around them. Visiting Tokyo right now and there are so many gorgeous concrete buildings. The last thing I’d want is to live in a city that was so stuck in the past that all buildings look 100 years old. Give me buildings from the 2020s not the 1920s. Give me sleek and light concrete, metal and glass. Death to brick and wrought iron.
