Oh man... I've never worked with concrete, but I would love to make a desk stand that looked like a little montréal métro station. They're all rather brutalist, and have flat tops haha

yeah i really want to try and make something like this. I was thinking of getting some spraypaint and making it look like part of it had been tagged with graffiti. Maybe one edge is broken so it looks like something I just found. I don't have the faintest idea of architecture styles, just thinking what would look cool and contrast with polished, refined, technology like a macbook or something.

There's lots of makers on Youtube who have good tutorials for getting that sort of look.

These two come to mind:

That thing looks like giant pillbox bunker.

They (tend to) open up to big spaces on the inside! So they feel like... bunker cathedrals maybe? I find them to be interesting spaces!

I'll accept that I'm biased by living here though haha
