why did they do it?
say what you want about the air fryer but the old one was kinda ugly
>>154997841it was ugly in a soulful but timeless kind of way, the new one is just generic product of our times which will likely look outdated in a decade or two from now.
it looked old and decrepit
>>154997890No, it's just ugly. You are just blinded by nostalgia and habit.
>>154997810damn madrid looks like an ugly city
The pillars were iconic, now it just looks like any other soulless modern stadium
>>154998072turn your monitor on
I can’t think of any stadium that’s not an utterly hideous concrete monstrosityMaybe the new one for Everton or the circus tent for united
It's gone from looking like a bus station to an airport terminal.
>>154997810Continental soccer stadium design is godawful regardless. Only bongs and sudacas make good looking ones.
>>154997810Demonic post-modernism.
>>154997810you can blame the aesthetics but it's a smart move, you have to do this to earn more money during matchdays and when you rent the stadium for concerts and shit. in the long run it's well spent money.
>>154997810I don’t find the old design appealing either, but it’s true that the new one doesn’t impress anyone. From old and meh to generic modern, it looks like a printer. I completely understand giving it an overhaul in general and especially adding a roof you can close and a movable pitch, though. It makes the stadium much more profitable for other events. But I have heard it doesn’t work too well for a few reasons?
>>154999149germany mogs both especially the latter lmao
>>154997810Brutalism fell out of favor and became associated with fascism
>>154997810Dementino be like
>>154997810Both are ugly
>>154997810>bernabfuit was needed
So it's one of those threads.
>>155001287I kinda like the new bernabeu but you gotta admit that it is not symmetrical at all, that alone is very very weird
