Thank you. Very new and informative analyses.

Great content, but a quick tip: I think you should not do a 'video dump' like you did yesterday - better to drip them out like a few days or even a week apart. That can keep your channel right toward the top of the youtube algorithm. This content is excellent but it's going to get lost because it was all dumped at once.

The imagination of architects is so impoverished and the general public is so downtrodden by minimalism, AI-generated images with renderings of a traditionally styled options are worthwhile just to show people what is possible.

When i can find the book and work of his

You hit my faves Sullivan and Saarinen

What a beautiful lecture. Thank you for uploading.

Definitions are, as Aristotle would say, a perfection of knowledge, but you can be pedantic about it. The point is to make necessary distinctions. But in architecture, which is a practical act, the need for total theoretical precision is not necessary, because the aim is not to create a dictionary, but to produce a building. If we wish, we could say that ornament concerns what is immutable about a building, while decoration is something that can festoon a building, thus putting it somewhat outside the domain of architecture in the strict sense.

YES! PLEASE. improve freaking hideous Le Corbusier!!!

Spectacular

Melissa is the best moderator so far

Excelent Prof Salingaros! Thank you so much for the notes *you have to pause the video to take it all in) . That lion is very funny too

Great video. Classical and traditional architecture really uplifts cites and neighborhoods. I feel great pain whenever older structures are demolished and replaced with really bland or downright ugly ones.

Loved the book.

nice content

I really liked this video. Unfortunately, my city (Veszprém, Hungary) also suffers from the remnants of socialist architecture. Half of the city center, which originally consisted of 2-3 storey baroque buildings, is now occupied by concrete monsters. It struck me that even if there is no money for a complete renovation, an art deco "lattice stitching" could greatly improve the appearance of such buildings. What do you think about such transformations?

Fantastic!

Braviiiiiisimo!!!!

Authenticity? Ha ha. Before we can talk about anything we must become civilised and we are a long long way from that. We are basically infants with knives. For the first step to civilisation everyone must have free food, housing, medicine and ethically founded education. The elderly must be treated with absolute care, respect and tenderness. That is the first step. The stupid question of how it may be financed is answered thus: divert all funds used for space adventures and military domination. More than enough.😊

As of November 2017, the federal government directly employed 364,000 people in the D.C. area. About 54 percent of those jobs were in the District itself.

Too Eurocentric

Genial didactically enlightening… disgusting and frustrating when Leo was abruptly interrupted by the moderator; precisely when Leo started to denounce the woke paranoia scam of climate change so called ’science’

what is the book Mr. Buras mentions at around 46 min mark?

First 20 minutes is the show stopper!

Have you noticed that many cars today appear to be frowning in anger and in sadness?

I really like the Treese residence in Koenigstein made in a Schinkel style. Kudos. Beautiful

Sussman is not just jumping to conclusions. She is being offensive. She is trying to suggest that autistic people are cognitively and socially compromised for the sake of making an argument about classical architecture.

It's ineffably delightful to listen to Leon's discourse! His words cut through with candor and intrepidity, and yet, he remains affable and courteous. Such a strong voice.

I thought the giant pyramid was supposed to be a history museum?

Many Paris formal projects predate Haussmann, un particular the rue de Rivali which was started under Napoléon. And their are many pre revolution landmarks, especially squares (Vendôme, Concorde). However what Haussmann did is creating a new system of avenues at city level, slashing through already built up neighbourhod. Also keep in mind that Haussmann"s intervention was meant to price the working class pit of the city centre!

1:36-1:39 is Andres saying it on one foot

wonderful!

"Spirit helpers" were called "muses" by the Greeks and Saint Nektarios referred to them in his early 20th century writings on education as well but he really meant "the Holy Spirit," I think. It is quite a feat to open architecture to the spiritual world. I do not disagree that architecture is a manifestation of the philosophical and theological.

Architecture cannot be separated from philosophy. Postmodern philosophy has deeply affected our lack of architectural instruction, even in classical education. We tend to focus on "the truth and the good" but can forget about "the beautiful." Teaching my students the orders was important to me as a teacher. Each one of my children can tell the difference between at least doric and corinthian just with a glance. You have to believe in absolutes in order to make the statement, "This is beautiful. That is not beautiful." Moral relativism doesn't allow for that.

The best quote of the day: "Those who don't know their past have no future"

Andres is proposing a deserved and extremely necessary revolution of thought in classicism. We need to move from just using the orders according to renaissance treatises, we need to learn how to MANIPULATE the orders and CREATE new orders according to the new possibilities of material, wich we learned, thanks to Andres Heterodoxia, all of the great classicist were already doing that right under the classical purists and educators noses! We refused to consider that classical, we ignored it. What Leon Krier is doing with Le Corbusier is actually what every classicist should be doing, but we should be both modern in our parti and classical in our ompositions and detailing. The modernists have now adopted traditional urbanism wich was its biggets flaw and it turns out that even a ridiculous glass twisting and turning structure can be pretty acceptable by placing it on a dense, tight urban envoirnment and give it some color. But people still prefer classical buildings, we are just ignoring the people and not corresponding to their needs, and as well as beauty, people need something to aspire to, something to inspire them about the future and classicism now is just boring mansions and fake temples... We should be teaching students to draw freely like the contemporary modernists, a kind of expressive classicism or free classicism, because the classicist system always helps to give clarity to a project, and we would be much more well received than just a modernist building without any grounding, visual or historical. Why arent international competitions for public or affordable housing FLOODED with classical proposals? why arent we proposing affordable housing for developing countries in their own traditional style, that people in those contries can relate to? the modernists cant do that. We should be on every competition for new town developments and great civic buildings and actually presenting new stuff, new, inovative designs. Leon Krier is the only one doing that, but the man is almost eighty, everybody should be publishing and competing for big projects everywhere, spreading the message. Why are we letting the modernists claim our best new traditional architects? why doesnt Calatrava admit that he is a modern gothic? because we are still making conservative spires in college campuses, they dont want to be associated with backwardness. We should be planning cities in Mars! did you know that scientists discovered that the best material to build there is stone, the red stone from mars? Thats Egipt! And it can all be constructed by robots so its ready when the firts human gets there, thats what we should be doing. We should be using virtual reality to show people how a project feels to be in, to walk by before its built, so that people can understand how much more enjoyable a classical streetscape is! We are not reaching out for the people, they deserve to choose what they want, and we know that they want classicism, we just have to offer it to them in a way that is to good form them to refuse, we cannot be acused anymore of being backwards, we can do everything they can do, only better. Andre has been probably the most exciting lecturer in the whole classical architecture field. We just need to start producing work, drawing and publishing and dreaming, Western culture needs a dream, an ideal, a horizon to reach, to pursue and Vitruvius' principles fit in and encompass precisely that future that we need to imagine. Thanks to Andres for this passionate wake up call that every young architect should see and listen to and cant wait for the next lecture wich will be about actual projects. I hope i dint sound very pretentious.

Love Andres passion, i think he is right. The classical language is able to inovate as much as the modernists do. Clacissists should stop to recreate archetypes of buildings that already exist but try to answer the problems of the contemporary world. Edit. Can't believe that Andres is 72

It got a bit heated at times but I really loved the frankness and passion of this discussion. Loads of interesting points were made, and I really hope we get that sequel! Thanks!

I was inspired by Mr Kriers lecture many years ago at University. There was hope for traditional design.

Ihr seid Pioniere der kommenden Ära! 😊 Man wird noch viel von euch hören!

22:00 seasteading as "new" protected tribe , example of human machine rule . e.g. no cars, but connected to the world grid. like wrathofgnon's "offgrid but in the city"

I enjoyed this until the music came up half way through the presentation and Ann’s voice got muted
