The Problem with Concrete

by Silex Bjerg

Concrete is not ugly. I want to establish this before anything else because the rest of what I have to say depends on it, and because the people who find concrete ugly are making a judgment about the surface of a material whose entire significance is beneath the surface, which is not a useful way to evaluate anything.

Concrete is misread. This is different from being ugly. Misreading has a solution.
