Has this been done somewhere?

Any other ways to make it look better than tearing it down? Whole bunch of fake glass?

    Some graffiti is, I think, traditional at this point and a good mural can do wonders to humanize it. I have a feeling that patterns are not actually going to improve it though. The problem is often the form rather than what the material looks like. You could paint it to look like a row of thatched cottages but that would to me be even more depressing.

    You are also then committed to repainting it regularly or it’s going to quickly look even worse than when you started.

      Plants, especially vines, tend to go great with brutalism. The living contrast adds color and life to durable structures.

        Vines in my opinion are great dicore maybe that’s because I’m a sucker for abandoned building vibes idk what it is that makes me love looking at abandoned buildings it’s one of the reasons I love portal 2’s abandoned sci Fi look if I wasn’t for the high heights and turrets I would love to explore abandoned apeture
