someone in the notes on that “stop fetishizing old houses” post commented that builders before the 1970s were too concerned with elegance and grandeur, and that was all really just wastefulness

and I think about my apartment, a duplex from 1912, surely built for a middle- or working-class family. spartan, really; quite basic and no-frills. not much to look at from the outside. just like a thousand buildings of similar provenance in the Boston area.

there are flowers molded in the chunky, cast-iron radiators

there’s a design of concentric circles in the carved door-lintels

many buildings of this type have a little stained-glass window somewhere

I think about ornate door hinges in the staff wing of a country estate from 1878. think of patterned wallpaper in a mansion’s kitchen, from 1797. I think about purely functional spaces someone looked at and said, “this needs beauty”

the past was certainly guilty of waste in many ways. but I cannot call making a house more than just a box to live in one of them

Tumblr user if-i-am-not-for-me:

Minimalism is just propaganda to make people accept souless surroundings

Tumblr user whiteantcrawls:

Just because something is utilitarian, doesn’t mean it can’t also be beautiful.
