Make buildings beautiful again

[Swordsmyth]

The White House is reportedly preparing an executive order that would direct all new federal buildings to be built in the classical architectural style.
The Architectural Record has obtained a preliminary draft of the order, entitled ‘Making Federal Buildings Beautiful Again’, under which “the White House would require rewriting the Guiding Principles for Federal Architecture, issued in 1962, to ensure that “the classical architectural style shall be the preferred and default style” for new and upgraded federal buildings.
The order would reverse favoring Brutalist and Deconstructivist styles advocated by the General Service Administration’s (GSA) Design Excellence Program and would instead favor the architectural styles of “democratic Athens” and “republican Rome.”
The executive order trashes brutalist buildings such as the U.S. Federal Building in San Francisco, the U.S. Courthouse in Austin, Texas, and the Wilkie D. Ferguson, Jr. U.S. Courthouse in Miami as having “little aesthetic appeal.”
The draft order asserts that Brutalist and Deconstructivist styles “fail to satisfy” the requirements of building designs to provide “dignity, enterprise, vigor and stability.”
In a development that almost certainly isn’t a coincidence, GSA’s Chief Architect and Director of the Design Excellence Program, David Insinga, resigned his post last week.

Can the First Lady do something about military uniforms? Something that doesn't look like potato sacks?


The "greatest generation" was also sharply dressed.

Just borrow from history for non-combat uniforms.

That's what he's doing with the buildings.

the error of Nimrod continues.

Beautiful buildings are not the error of Nimrod.

Following stupid Leaders is.

and the Followers of Nimrod Build the Cesspits called cities. Their marks are all over them.

The error of Nimrod was global empire, that's why GOD divided the nations at Babel.

Getting rid of nations and borders is the error of Nimrod.

No..There were none..

God told the people to spread out and Nimrod made a City and gathered them together..

There were no nations at all until the scattering and confusion of tongues.

Nimrod was the First Leader.
The error is following such.

The error is following such.

The nations were forming from the isolated and scattered communities, GOD scrambled the languages of the people to force them to separate and become distinct nations.

Adam was the first leader.

Adam was long dead as well as all but one family.. killed by a Flood..

There were three family lines,,Noah's sons..

and there were Abominations.. Half humans,, Nimrod was such..

He was against God. and enslaved the people to build for him.

Read the book. Then read Gilgamesh.. SAME BEAST

Enoch was also a leader, and Melchizedek, and Abraham etc.

The error of Nimrod was global empire and seeking the power of GOD for corrupt purposes.

you are quite confused.. Enoch was before the Flood,, an ancestor of Noah.

And following anything other than God is error.

You are confused, I never said whether Enoch was before or after the flood, it doesn't matter, he was a leader.

And so were Melchizedek and Abraham.

All were holy men who led their people to follow the LORD.

There are degrees of following people and leaders are required, the better the leader is the more you can follow them, many here follow Ron Paul as a leader to some degree and that isn't bad.

Well, good.

No reason public buildings have to look like Soviet prison blocks.

I'm torn on this. On the one hand, I don't want one extra penny going to federal infrastructure, over and above maintaining a safe place for the bureaucracy to operate. Of course, that means that the bureaucrats will be more inclined to seek power, since their offices suck.

On the other hand, providing wonderful beautiful places for the bureaucracy via taxpayer money (or additional borrowing) to operate seems to be an enabling move, making the bureaucrats feel all the more powerful, and desirous of gaining more power to have nicer digs.

Seems like lose-lose for the public.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Anti Globalist]

Tearing down these federal buildings is a much better option than making them look good.

I agree,, but those places of worship will not go away till the end.

But Jesus called them aside and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their superiors exercise authority over them. It shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

So Jesus called them together and said, “You know that those regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their superiors exercise authority over them. But it shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be the slave of all.…

so nice it is recorded Twice...

We do need some federal building for legitimate federal functions.

But I'm sure we could easily tear down quite a few.

The symbolism is important, he is taking us back to the days of the founders.

[TheTexan]

To curry favor with @TheTexan, I'm going to recommend that all law enforcement buildings be sufficiently gilded.

+rep that's actually a really good idea. I would also suggest there should be an on-site massage and spa. Being a hero can be very stressful.
