^ Ditto those New York skyscrapers - super sexy!
For me, it's anything with those 1960's, Mad Men aesthetics.
In my neck of my woods, for example, I would give my left nut for this building to have not been razed. It is the former Corporate HQ of Upjohn (now part of Pfizer) - known as Building 88 and located in Portage, Michigan. This SOM-designed, Sasaki-landscaped building was so sleek and sexy - the pure embodiment of 1960's energy. Constructed between 1959 - 1961. How could anything this beautiful have been destroyed? I'm sure I've posted some of these elsewhere on this forum in the past. If only it still stood today...
