Comfortable as hell.
Informative video, thanks. The Macedonian Academy of Science and Arts is beautiful. The university campus, bridge, post office are all interesting too.
The wall and shops are too oppressive, almost relentless, for my taste.
To my eyes, concrete looks great in bright, dry climates but I sometimes find it discoloured and dull in wetter climates/seasons. I think some bright sunshine bouncing off the dry concrete and scattering the light around would be transofrmative. 🤷🏼♀️
awesome stuuff. educative, nitty gritty concrete and graffiti, love it! the moustache and leather jacket are real. 543 views, make it 544, and 10x it, keep it up guys!
that double bridge has a wonderful lightness. It demonstrates very well the poetry of concrete. Good video, thank you! Hopefully, Skopje Brutalism is not suffering from the duel banes of similar buildings elsewhere — asbestos contamination, and rust caused by water seepage.
