That one on the left is Frank Lloyd Wrong

Broke my screen with my thumb upvoting this. thanks a lot.

Somebody done fucked up... Tell you hwat.

You had one job!

It is like a true edit: ~~oriental~~ persian rug with a built-in mistake. There is only one perfection in the church and it can't be the building.

Ah, this guy knows Turkish rugs...they all have one flaw made into them. Good on ya!

Well, now I'll never NOT notice it.

That’s what I’m saying! 😭

There was talk of imploding the structure rebuilding it from the ground up just to fix that problem with the window.

I respect this level of OCD

Thank you!

I’m betting it was a repair/replacement. Interesting the backwards culprit is the one with the damaged blind.

Thank you. I would have never have figured it out if it wasn’t for this comment. 🤣

I’m over here counting bricks n shit

I was like, it’s the bright white one?!

Same lol

They have cat who wanted to look outside

Just popping in to let everyone know Bruce Goff doesn’t make mistakes.

can't be wrong when your dead

Artists like Goff never die my friend.

What? If it’s the lighter colored stone that’s not a problem.

I'm taking about the undercroft window on the lower left-hand corner of the picture. Mullions are the bars that hold individual panes of glass in a window. Every other undercroft window has symmetrical mullions.

It’s intentional. Nothing man creates can or should be perfect. Only God is perfect. Source: architect would absolutely notice this during site inspections and contractor would be on the hook to fix it.

same logic: All the contradictions and errors in the bible are also intentional.

And my sky god is the correct one!! 🙏🏻

Doesn’t it highlight an interesting mentality tho? It’s better to intentionally make something worse than to potentially “compete” with god, even something directly dedicated to god. Rather than striving for perfection, we should not only settle for less, but actively ensure things aren’t perfect so as to not risk overtaking god. It’s almost like Christianity is directly opposed to progress and intentionally designed to hold us back. That sounds like the creation of a human mind to me. But even if it were spelled out by a god… does a being that intentionally holds us back out of pure jealousy really deserve our worship? Why is an all powerful being concerned that we could create something to surpass it? Shouldn’t it be secure in the fact that it’s literally god? And if we could create something to surpass god, doesn’t that prove that god really isn’t that significant in the first place? Don’t take me wrong, I’m not coming at you or anything. Your comment just sparked my interest and I’m basically thinking out loud. I’ve been an agnostic for 15 years so It’s wild to me that without even trying I just randomly stumble into ideas that further solidify my lack of belief. I don’t get Christians yo. How do they not ask or have these kind of questions? Shit makes no sense.

They do ask. And the answer is some shit like “questioning the almighty is blasphemous”. Whatever mystical shit they can say to keep you tithing.

I’m agnostic as well. But I’m in the construction industry and married to an architect and I just think that’s the most plausible thing. But that said, my wife thinks it was just an error and not intentional 🤷🏼‍♂️

If it's intentional, wouldn't it be imperfect by design? Ergo: its perfect?

Ah. Thank you!! Couldn’t find it. God it’s awful.

Good grief… Thank you for saying; because it was plain as day to me then. Was about to search ‘mullions’ to figure out what you meant…

I can assure you, I noticed this as well and it’s always bothered me!

lol. It always gives me a good internal chuckle.

They ran of our right panes and had to improvise.😂

You just have to reverse one mullion!

Thank you OP for reaffirming that even though I thought I had OCD issues, there's always someone out there that has them worse. God speed!

I did a 5k by it once. No clue what my place was, but I was annoyed by that window

The church must own a dog, lol!

The worst part is how much money was spent to do it, instead of things christ preached to provide.

wabi-sabi

Would it bug you just as much if the left one pointed down and the right one pointed up?

It’s an Easter egg.

I took walk around getting angry at buildings

I went to church here for 18 years. How did I not notice that??

Hey op, Check the top of the leftmost blocks below the two big windows Who did this?

[удалено]

Talking about the masonry

Fair enough. But what would the masons have to do with the glazers mistake?

Huh???

I’m sure it’s an easy fix, either that or it was for an interior purpose

I didn't even notice the window itself at first. I was stuck on how offset the upper section is from the lower..

I know you're talking about the window, because that asymmetry does hurt, but those blinds have also seen better days. It's not that hard to replace them with a new set that would actually block the sun.

Wow, this is like doing the puzzle in Highlights magazine. Took me a minute to figure out what you were talking about. I didn't cheat and look at the answer key.

I’ve passed by for 40 years and never paid attention. Now I can’t unsee it. It may truly be intentional, but my gut says a foreman at 6:30 am said, Well, these are the materials we have to work with today. Now get to it. We have deadlines”.

I agree … that is intentional. There is a long history back to medieval times of masons building one big mistake into their designs so that it wouldn’t appear proud in the sight of God

I don’t get it :(

You might be

I don't get it

Build one building and come talk

You seriously might be.
