Modernist City Buildings
The object of this contest should be a single tile large building as found in city centres. It has to be in a modernist style, more specifically from the aera 1950 to 1975. The building can be a scenic or famous building, but does not have to be. Both residential and commercial buildings are welcome, industrial building only if it fits into a downtown setting.
A predominant style from this aera is for example brutalist architecture
ideas can be found for example in a flickr group, with deviantart etc.
Feel free to post and discuss other architectural styles from this period (1950 to 1975) in the forum thread.
Details on the timeline, content to be submitted, rules, can also be found in the forum.
