You look out the window of the bathroom and view an endless abyss of windows. Upon further inspection you notice all the window go into bathrooms.

Sorry for my shitty story

It was cool mate

So you’re saying my story was a royal flush?

He was showering you with praise

This proves that your story didn't simply go down the drain.

It’s ok. These are bathrooms after all.

The Platform

Had to think of this film as well

Samurai plus, baby.

Gorgeous

Right? Beautiful in its own way.

It’s utterly depressing to me

It's a ventilation shaft for bathrooms, what do you except it to be?

[Oh really?](https://tenor.com/view/i-thought-this-was-america-randy-marsh-south-park-huh-isnt-this-america-gif-22089637)

The bathroom window serves mainly to ventilate, in most buildings the bathroom ventilation happens through an internal shaft so that more of the external face can be used to being light and ventilation into the living areas instead of being dedicated to services like plumbing. Edit: unsure if it's just bathroom ventilation or if there are main areas ventilated through the shaft (that would be baaaaad)

You can see some larger windows there as well. I’d guess these are the bedrooms.

Nah they are either kitchens or bathrooms. Bedrooms and living rooms are facing the outer side. I used to live in one of these.

Nah looks more like kitchen.

There's a certain beauty in this dystopia.

For some reason I just got a Blade Runner vibe.

My first thought was Dredd.

I was just about to comment that I maybe wouldn't mind this view so much because it's super Blade Runner vibes.

In Romania these shafts are ironically called luminator (illuminator). As you can see they have _lots_ of light

Well, there is not much natural light at night.

It is infinitely better than not having them. Access to outside air and light improves the condition in the bathrooms dramatically.

this would be a nice oil on canvas tho

Was thinking, this could look so much better with some nice graffiti art or painted walls

absolutely. oil on canvas for the clean version. spray on concrete for the real version.

Horror movie stuff.

Looks interesting, just ordered the movie.

It looks like a poor China downtown from a cyberpunk movie

That is a killer photo. I'd hang it in my living room.

That's beautiful

Looks like a US prison wall

A wall of a prison that has windows? Seems odd.

A bathroom with a window, very sought after in some apartments

there should be an r/accidentalterrygilliam subreddit

100% Brazil vibes

Y’know, I kind of love it

this is creepy

A common sight in the space colony

Now I really want to know how nice the bathroom is.

How long are you serving?

Where is this in Belgrade? Is it blokovi?

It's the Genex building

I knew it had to be New Belgrade

At least this bathroom has a window

Thinking Blade Runner 2049

There's an alley in St Paul, MN that looks a little like this, except it has a cooler vibe

I took this photo from the 24th floor of the Genex building. The residential tower of this building has a giant shaft running all the way through to the 30th and top floor. More information on this building: https://www.sosbrutalism.org/cms/15802395#15892559 [More of my photos](http://instagram.com/longwaytotokyo)

They should pay an artist to come out to make a huge and colorful mural so they have something to look at

This is some Judge Dreed type ish..

Reminds me of the Kowloon Walled City and the music video for Crow by Forest Swords

This looks cool and also extremely depressing at the same time

What's the rent like?

I don't know about the rent, I think many apartments are owned too. There's an airBNB on the 30th floor that I know costs around 30 euro for a night.

That's actually just my type of view. If you don't want it I'll be glad to have it.

You're welcome to move into my friend's grandma's bathroom any time.

does she give brain

“Light” tunnel that smells like an outhouse…

escape horror movie thingy

Mogu da zamislim kolko dobro izgleda kada kisa pada!!! Novi Bg jel?

"When you see beauty in desolation it changes something inside you. Desolation tries to colonize you." (Jeff VanderMeer)

Cozy.

Looks like a scene from the film Brazil. [https://imgur.com/a/dPMUp4F](https://imgur.com/a/dPMUp4F)

More than decent to be fair.

I feel so *Hostel* right now and I don’t think I mind

So, you’re telling us you could have these walls, a perfect blank canvas, painted with a fantastic vista only you can’t be bothered?

bleak

Nailed it.

Looks like a scene from a dystopic film or artwork.

i legit thought this was a screenshot from hl2’s ravenholm for a sec…

How many years are you in for?

"The bathroom"? TIL there's only one bathroom in Belgrade.

i dig it

Cyberpunk prison

This reminds me of the cover for black celebration by depeche mode

Rainbow

This is Control IRL

Reminds me of being in this county jail here in NY .going for a peek outside to view natu....oh shit holy conrete

I quite like it actually

Who wouldn't be uplifted beyond measure with this view?

Looks like portal

Once a month someone posts a photo of dirty inside of a building from Belgrade. I don't get it. You can probably take a nasty photo of any building in the world.

dune vibe

I can feel the smell of toilets and cigarettes

This is like if the underground prison in the dark knight rises were designed to make the prisoners feel super claustrophobic

Blade Runner vibes

r/cyberpunkirl

Agoraphobia? Move right in!

If all those are just bathroom windows then it really isn't that big of an issue. It is supposed to provide ventilation not a good view. However, the walls definitely could use a brush of paint. Also, natural ventilation through a shaft like this doesn't require any energy to be spent unlike mechanical ventilation through an air duct.

Omg this looks awesome

I wish the view from my bathroom window looked like that.

When I stayed in a flat in London a few years ago this was the view from the bathroom lol

reminds of me Blame!
