Date: March 27th, 2005 12:24 AM Author: crystalline ceo hell Subject: You know I don't think Evans would be so ugly if
(1) They didn't paint it that horrid green color.
(2) They didn't build it with a courtyard layout, AND THEN FILL IT IN WITH CLASSROOMS.
(3) It were hidden amongst other ugly buildings, like Wurster or Boalt, in that corner of campus, instead of being out in the open and right near gorgeous Doe for constant and refexive visual comparison.
I hasn't grown on me yet. In fact, before I didn't think it was so bad. Sure, unpleasant in its verdance, but not nearly as bad as say, Wurster, Cesar Chavez, MLK, Eschelman or Zellerbach. That changed when I started having discussion in it. God, as bad as it is on the outside, imo it's so much worse on the inside. Dwinelle may be a maze, but at least it has windows.

yaeh i guess. the area surrounding Memorial's Blade is the only place with nice buildings, and Evans kinda stand out there.
Yeah now that you mentioned Wurster, Eschelman etc, we do have some butt ugly buildings.
We have like no coherent themes. 1/3 of the buildings have red roofs, others and green or gray and boxy. And the whole campus is built on a hill. so some buildings are trapezoid, you walk in on 2nd floor on one side and walk out on 3rd floor on the other.

I wish they would stick to the orginal Beaux Arts style instead of implanting monstrosities like this:
http://www.berkeley.edu/news/media/releases/2004/07/images/musiclibrary1.jpg
And in addition to Memorial Glade, all of the buildings along Sather Way from the Gate are nice. Plus the College of Natural Resources, VLSB, Haas Pavillion... we've got some nice stuff.
But definitely agreed on the mix-match. It was the second thing I noticed about the school, besides all the bums.

I think it looks so-so on the outside.
Beautiful on the inside though.

I was just doing the law school - I'm sure there's someone else here to critique the rest of the university.
Memorial is a bit much, but I've never had a problem with it. Gropius, on the other hand, was home for two years.

And apparently someone in the administration agreed.
How the hell do these god-awful multimillion dollar buildings get authorized anyway?

You'd be surprised. The last time they built a dorm (well, three connected dorms) at the U of C, the University insisted that the architect liven up his design with brighter colors. It's now scorned as hideously ugly buildings by most of the population.

*snickers*
At least it would be easy to find after a night of drinking, I guess.
Maybe the problem is that college buildings are designed and paid for by people who don't have to use them. I've been surprised how poorly-conceived some classroom and dorm interiors are.

That's what the entire Universität Trier looks like. Every building is in that style.
I can't find any good pictures, so here's the best I have (you can see the building in the background, that's what the whole place looks like. Except for the cafeteria they're standing in front of).

at UW where i went, Humanities is so hideous. people get respiratory infections because there's no ventilation.
tellingly, the Business building is gorgeous.

I disagree with Adah. Max Palevsky undoubtedly takes the prize as the foulest building on our campus, not the Regenstein library.
I was unable to find any good pictures, but here's a sketch:

the VAC (visual arts center) - the architect based the building off of his divorce with his wife, so there's a huge hole through the middle of it. the second floor is all glass (it's called the "fishbowl"), and the entire structure is very 70s, except in brick. it's awful. i couldn't find a very good picture of it, though, but you can get the idea, at least.
http://library.bowdoin.edu/images/vac2.gif
it probably wouldn't look so bad if it weren't surrounded by the original brick and ivy college buildings and the extremely beautiful art museum. but it is... and it's awful. additionally, there is a war memorial on one side of the entrance, which is basically 2 giant penis sculptures straddling the walkway. that definitely makes the structure even better-looking.

the whole god damn school....
edit: but if i had to pick a building I could narrow it down to the sub, college of education, the business building, fine arts building, and the holt. Yeah, the only cool looking buildings is the new thing that's being built (don't remember what it is called) and the admin building. Gravely hall looks pretty cool (good thing that is the anthro building..!)
