  1. It looks like the HyperCharger is mounted into the wrong direction.

  2. Clean, light, and functional design. Good for civic buildings.

    Love the ornamental stone mansions of old, but when I was working in one came to see their flaws. Heating, air condition, elevator shafts, and room layouts were NOT perfected 100-150 years ago.

  3. Most of all it does look very light and open, which is perfect for civic buildings

  4. Well, I don’t see any sugar cubes, but it looks like a clean design.

  5. As far as modern designs go this one is actually nice. Could use some color maybe but it looks functional and that‘s all it needs to be.

  6. Could have gone for something a bit more stately than than Calibri font, kinda makes it look like the PowerPoint template of buildings.

  7. Disgusting, nothing related to rich historic city or Czech culture in general. Such a building could equally be made in Guatemala or Vietnam. Also, differently than the old architecture, this will look like rubbish in 10 years, as everything built after 1960s.

  8. Do you get diabetes if you go there too often?

  9. It’s alright but come on, it’s a capital and the town hall of my 50k town looks about the same size. Also I can’t tell from the pic but is it even near the city center?

    Edit: Oh it’s a district town hall, not entire Prague. Why did you number your districts lmao that’s so boring. I retract everything I said about the town hall though. It’s pretty on par for a single district. I like the glowing clock!

  10. Prague 12? Have there been ten Pragues I’ve never heard of?

  11. If it’s to represent sugar cubes, shouldn’t the building be more cube~ish?

  12. I googled it for you: It’s a Southern suburbs district town hall.

  13. So they had so much space yet they made the climb for wheelchair users so dumb. Why?

  14. Everyone knows you don’t use windowpane LSD with sugar cubes! 🤣

  15. It looks nice but what about accessibility for wheelchair users? We shouldn’t be building like that in the 21st century.

  16. I like it. Better result than the ‘ijspaleis’ in The Hague.

  17. Yeah doesn’t look at all like sugar cubes, nice building though. And Prague is wonderful.

  18. Because the architect clearly had a sweet tooth and was hoping for a sugary surprise! 🍬

  19. It‘s a complete departure from the surrounding architecture, with 0 visible links to the past. Reminds me of a converted warehouse

  20. Just from the looks of it, I can tell this wasn’t built in Paris.

  21. Why would you want your townhall to represent sugar cubes?

  22. Well, it’s a great big “who cares” from me, Jeremy. Now onto the weather…

  23. I don’t want to be like one of those guys who hates modern shit but

    Old architecture was soooo much more intricate and detailed and took effort, a 8 year old could design this on Microsoft paint
