For all the architecture junkies out there – we’ve hand picked five of our favorite Instagram feeds to give you your daily dose of striking cityscapes and beautiful buildings from across the world.
First up we have @dearaujo, or Décius Araújo as he’s known outside the world of Instagram. A formally trained architect from Sao Paulo, Araújo shoots pictures from one of the most populous cities in the world. His photographs are shot with his phone, but are nonetheless spectacular for it.
Secondly we give you @brutal_architecture. Unsurprisingly with a focus on Brutalist architecture, this is the account to follow if you enjoy the menacing beauty of this modernist architectural movement. The photographs are shot all across the world.
Up next is something a little different from the fortress-like Brutalist architecture. @freepy has been uploading a picture a day for just over 1000 days. Based in Paris his feed consists of picturesque cityscapes and buildings from one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
@CarlosCopertone takes us to Spain and shows us the diversity of the architecture there. If windows and stairs are your thing then this is the place for you.
Last, but by no means least we have @darkitecto. Award-winning designer Julio Juárez takes pictures from Chicago and Mexico City giving us a diverse selection of Architecture from that part of the world. He’s also just celebrated the birth of his first child, so if babies are more your thing then there’s a pretty cute one that pops up now and then on his feed.
