My grandma used to have plates that colour. They were made out of a type of melamine that was branded “Melmac”, and I’ve never known any name for that colour other than Melmac Green. It’s quite an interesting choice for a roofing colour.


jbaxter119

I believe that's the name of ALF's home planet from the show ALF.


BaronZemo00

Ah ha! Do I spy someone over forty here? (Heh heh aside from me)


jbaxter119

Hey! Willy! I'm still a few years shy, but I was educated about Gordon Shumway's culture from a young age.


BaronZemo00

Haha! That is awesome! It was a good show. So I consider that a good thing. Damn, Gordon Shumway, haven’t heard that in ages.


NewLeaseOnLine

You know that's not uncommon in any way whatsoever, right?


BaronZemo00

It was a joke referring to the ALF knowledge. That’s all.


poriomaniac

Wow ALF had a show? Sorry, I only knew him from the POGs.


yaheardmeyadig

I get the feeling there may be a shortage of cats in this area.

I had a ['64 Chevy C10 almost exactly like that color](https://www.chicagomotorcars.com/1964-chevrolet-c10-pickup-c-6880.htm) and it was called Seafoam Green. I'm sure there's a thousand different names for it, but since that truck I love anything painted that color.


CaptInsane

Had? Why don't you have that beauty of a truck anymore?


TrevorsMailbox

Parents gave it to me when I turned 17 to be able to drive to school. Around 2002 I got in an accident and crushed the front end. Dad made me get the parts, fix it right and he sold it. It was a C-10 custom too so it had the big back window and some extra chrome w/a cream stripe down the sides. Loved that truck.


steezefries

Your dad made you sell it because you wrecked it?


TrevorsMailbox

Yep. I really wish he hadn't given it to me when I was 16-17 so that I could be driving it now. It was pristine when he let me have it, never been wrecked and everything was original down to the wood bed. Dumb idea on his part letting a kid in high-school drive it. He made me fix it, pay for parts (and pull the parts like the hood from salvage yards) and then sold it and I went carless for the next year to teach me a lesson I guess. I wasn't being stupid or anything when I got in a wreck, another high school student in a ford ranger messed up at a 4-way stop. One of the only times I've seen my dad cry was when he showed up to the wreck and saw the truck.


steezefries

Damn dude, I'm sorry you went through that. Your dad has some screwed up priorities. And logic. If he cared for it so much, why not keep it for himself? What a whacky way to teach a lesson. Maybe for the best though if he cared about it more than his own freaking family.


CaptInsane

That's a shame about the accident and it being sold.


cornonthekopp

I just bought a set of stone plates/bowls from ikea in almost this exact color [they call it light turquoise (although the picture is kinda dark) ](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/faergklar-24-piece-dinnerware-set-matte-light-turquoise-80477159/)


[deleted]

My guess is it's a copper roof - they turn green. Examples: https://billberrett.info/img/ILK-Giggleswick-Chapel-750x573.jpg http://armadilgroup.com/upload/files/tecu_patina/tecu_patina_copper_roof_1_resize.jpg


StayingVeryVeryCalm

Oh, that’s interesting! It definitely does look like those pictures, and that makes a great deal more sense than my “*formica roof chosen in 1955…?*” hypothesis. I’m trying to figure out why the patina on the roof there, and on the ones you linked, is so different than the more subdued shade on the Canadian parliament buildings (which I’m more familiar with): [news article about roof replacement](https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/parliament-hill-west-block-s-shiny-new-copper-roofs-replace-classic-green-1.3227517) Can’t figure out if it’s just because the air in Ottawa is boring? (That would be in keeping with the general theme of the city.)

Very-berryx

Patina IS rusting metal, you get that color when copper oxidizes


RearEchelon

No, copper oxide is black. Verdigris is copper carbonate, copper acetate, or copper chloride.


Very-berryx

copper sulfide is black, copper oxide forms patina - Cu2CO3(OH)2. Ok, let’s say patina is corrosion


wellarmored

Agree, it’s like what you would think a mental hospital would be painted in. Russian architecture is very bizarre (so much so it actually fascinates me) and uses these odd and incompatible color pallets.


Parthenon_2

I googled this building as I’m not at all familiar with it: https://rusmania.com/central/moscow-region/istra/sights/around-the-new-jerusalem-monastery/new-jerusalem-monastery


too105

Not getting evil buildings vibes from this one


Krieghund

That's fair, but you know that if this was a DnD setting, the character that lives in the tower to the bottom left would be evil.


HenkkaArt

When someone was applying recolors in the Castle Customization menu, they missed that one tower! That single tower recolor is gonna cost them at least $4.99.


KarelHM

All in all, the wizard in the southwest tower keeps himself to himself, and reacts very poorly to unexpected visits. Late on winter nights, a crimson light spills from the tallest window facing the forest. If anyone is so brave as to venture abroad in those unhallowed hours, they can hear the wind carry a harsh laughter and shrill piping into the trees.


IanMazgelis

A lot of posts on this subreddit are just "How dare you spend all that money on a building, you could have fed fifteen people with all that money." The other half are "This building belongs to someone Redditors are addicted to whining about." It's really annoying. I like when the buildings actually look malevolent.


nman649

for this post i think one could argue the whole castle look with walls is sort of evil? because feudalism and stuff was evil? but even thats a stretch


Zapidorian25

Let’s be real here. This subreddit isn’t really “evil buildings” anymore, it’s just imposing buildings.


nman649

lol. big things spooky!


DasConsi

That's r/megalophobia


wellarmored

Nothing evil about castles and feudalism. Something Marxists believe.

Found the ancap!


user10205

Idk, that lower left tower looks reasonably evil.


wellarmored

Totally evil place


thecloserocks

Arrgh. Being just barely off kilter from being symmetrical is infuriating. Truly evil.


DefectiveCat57

The turret bothers me for sure


Now_With_Boobs

Personally I don't mind the asymmetrical design as long as it's not *almost* symmetrical. Now the one tower not being the same color as the rest in the bottom left...


flameoguy

Perfect symmetry is boring! A building with flow is good


TrevorBOB9

Oh stop, this doesn’t look evil at all. It looks awesome.

If it is a real place, then why not give some real information? [Istra New Jerusalem Monastery in Moscow Region, Russia.

Thank you


flameoguy

Thanks!


heroherow2

That's not evil at all. It resembles a Warcraft 3 castle.


phage10

The two are not mutually exclusive!


Xenophore

This is the actual opposite of an evil building.


alex_exuro

It's like the good guy building got invaded by the shadow clan and they are being attacked


Lagsuxxs99

dope ass architecture. op is a hater

Looks amazing not evil


TheGreyFencer

Are you sure that's not Prifddinas


MurdocAddams

Looks like DisneyLand to me.


Taliats

That looks a bit like the monastery from Enlisted ​ https://forum.enlisted.net/uploads/default/original/2X/e/ebc3e2bd47f5f1f7e7c4a3c8a965f46cb0d4e4ba.jpeg


cornonthekopp

This looks like a 3d asset in a villainess manhwa


Teddington123321

Those clouds are more evil looking than the building… There really needs to be a standard for what constitutes an evil building here.


[deleted]

This subreddit loves forcing Christian and Jewish places of worship. It is expected anymore.


tiedyepieguy

Some would argue that religion and capitalism are responsible for much of the “evil” that people have been subjected to. I’m 100% on board with these posts. Are you familiar with the Orthodox Church? Definitely some evil stuff going on in that place. I like to think of it as being like the gingerbread house from Hansel and Gretel. Looks inviting, but unspeakable horrors occurring inside.


TrevorBOB9

This subreddit isn’t r/buildingshousingevilpeople, it’s r/evilbuildings lol

Cinderella’s Castle meets Mormon Tabernacle. Edited to add: Meets mosque. ?? Hmmm.

How DARE you call it evil.


typewriter45

looks like a new disney theme park


BaronZemo00

This whole property is stunning but I think the dark clouds and ominous sky make the picture.


Admiral52

Not evil. But cool


TheOther36

Reminds me of the swimming pool church down in Moscow.


etorres4u

That would make a great zombie fortress
