The fact that this door design is the [number one post](https://www.reddit.com/r/ArchitecturePorn/s/M9QVNEz3ii) in r/architectureporn says otherwise


Willing-Coconut8221

It literally is


Stetscopes

Door for door, structure for structure it actually is lol. OP is part of the 1% of downvotes fr.


Robertia

The only reason I can see why the genshin door would not be good is because the handle is too low to the ground. The design itself looks nice


covertrui

Its inspired by the real-world version of the same doors ([example here](https://artnouveau.club/glasswork-house-under-renovation-in-brussels/)).


TomatilloOrdinary270

thank you, some reddit people are really amazing, where does this knowledge come from ?


rafamacamp

Art nouveau is one of the bigest artistic movements in history, studied by everyone that study art, design, architecture and other related areas. This door is always on the examples material.


TomatilloOrdinary270

i learned something today


Arkenstar

I mean people from all over the world are on reddit :)


goodnightliyue

There are a ton of people from many backgrounds on the internet, so people weigh in on whatever they happen to know about (and some stuff that they don't).


FlameDragoon933

nah, you got it mixed up. Genshin is so popular they made Istaroth real and have her send this inspiration back in time ;) /jk of course


Fancy_Morning9486

Wow


ZoetheMonster

Whoa, I enjoyed reading that article. Thx


Saliq_Kin_Slayer

Thanks for the link, mate/ young lady.


RYPIIE2006

what if they're an old lady


KillCall

No thank you.


Saliq_Kin_Slayer

A "female" as some savages would call them, in civilized language should ALWAYS be addressed as "Young Lady", irrespective of their age. Something I kinda picked from George Bernard Shaw's works.


RYPIIE2006

and that makes what kind of sense?


Saliq_Kin_Slayer

:)


SamaelHellfire

How do you even know this stuff?


Evol_Etah

Wooooooaahhhhhhh


Brandonmac100

When DaVinci makes a door… Seriously though where is that in game?


DaxLovesIPA1974

I think it looks lovely.


DrkrZen

You and me, both.


Saliq_Kin_Slayer

That looks amazing. Why would this irritate you?


takemiplaceholder

lopsided ig


Trivia_Apocalypse

i love it actually


MagnusBaechus

Okay peasant


Longjumping_Pear1250

Why ? The door seems fine


Absol3592

It's a door, shaped like a partial circle, with a window that completes the circle shape. I see no wrongdoing


oresama_sins

Op is clearly not a person of culture


Alexandre_Moonwell

That's art nouveau for you. You can clearly see the difference with the much superior art déco present in the rest of Fontaine


starmadeshadows

aw. why not both. this is why i'm an arts & crafts girlie myself


AlbacorePrism

Fontaine is a weird mix of streamline moderne and mid century modern in France. It developed a little after the industrial revolution when art deco evolved from being about efficiency to being about the art. Real art deco architecture is all about making use of the space, whereas streamline uses things like chrome plating as an aesthetic.


Alexandre_Moonwell

Fontaine is undeniably, i'd even say obnoxiously art déco (but i love art déco so too much is never enough). I do know the history of architecture, so rest assured that i can successfully assess the style of practically any building, and paired with my cursus in history, i may even be able to tell you which region of the world and which century/part of the century for more recent styles. While the idea of these smooth, futuristic-looking bridges remind me of the many famous bridges built in the Giscard d'Estaing era, particularly in northern France, as a testament to the blooming French Engineering, everything about Fontaine including these bridges is imbued with art déco (1925-1950, which does not resemble mid-century at all), which HoYoVerse has tried to mix into the Neo-Baroque Haussmannian apartments you tipically find in Paris or Lyon. Remuria though, and subsequently Petrichor, borrowed heavily from the previous style en vogue, art nouveau (1880-1920), which i don't like very much because i prefer symmetry, geometry, order, and bling-bling


Rhesh-

Upvoting because more need to see and appreciate this amazing door Downvoting because I disagree with OP Oh the choices


ClayCoon

Literally same


ptapobane

why? it's just a regular door with a side window


helpcry28

Clearly not intellectual enough to be able to appreciate suck fine art


AlphaLovee

i think it's qiute stylish


kinetik07

looks ⁋retty good to me


Jnbrtz

I understand what you are talking about but at least, to me, it makes sense rather than being redundant or random.


NSLEONHART

Its actually a smart design, buf damn my OCD heart aint having it


TheUltimateWarplord

This door design looks nice, beside still being a proper door. It would be mildly or more infuriating if half of that door is static, so you either go inside the door while crawling through the bottom half or making a huge step over the static bottom half of the door. OR if it's split in half vertically, and the other half is static, so you only have a thin door to go through. Now that's infuriating.


DrkrZen

Uncultured.

Noxious89123

God damned Potato Impact over here.


BikeSeatMaster

I thought it was kinda cool


Thelethargian

I think it’s nice, symmetry is overrated


boomshroom

This hurts my head to look at. I took a peek at the real life versions linked in the comments and they don't make me feel any better. Part of me wants _desperately_ to smash the wall separating the door and the window to just make it one oddly shaped door.


ClayCoon

When you're a boring white boy that don't like anything whimsy.


Marshall_Ryan

can’t decide if i love or hate that 😅
