Love how the party of small government decides to force certain architectural styles, the end result of which could only make GSAs job harder and more costly. Also, government buildings frequently are aspirational in the sense of pushing the envelope for things like green design and it would only inhibit that as well. I know it’s a dumb last minute order that will probably get addressed, but it’s just hilarious how no aspect of government is safe from the stupidity.

Georgian and Federal are both basically Colonial with bits of Classical tacked on.
This EO did get Brutalism trending on twitter, so I’ve looked at more ugly buildings today than I thought I would have when I woke up this morning.

I’m for more art deco, personally, but that probably has something to do with where I grew up:

Not… really sure who has standing to sue Biden when he overturns an EO demanding that all buildings be classical… Maybe Russell Crowe.
Lol, he’s right, but he wishes he wasn’t.

In “shit Trump is actually right about,” the FBI building in DC is truly one of the ugliest buildings I’ve ever seen.
