This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I think the greenery in these pictures is doing quite a bit of lifting. Brutalist buildings without plants are less fun to look at

I think that was the original idea for brutalist buildings, complementing them with plants? I don't want to look for a source right now though, so take it with a grain of salt.

Any building without plants is less fun to look at

Brutalism without greenery does not work well in general. I love the post apocalyptic vibes of a concrete building overgrown by plants.
