@xianc78 Buildings without ornaments are just glass or Legos.

@waltercool You can still find traditional churches at (Christian) college campuses. Cathedrals are still traditional. Catholics seem to be the only ones who still care about traditional church designs. Baptists are usually the most boring. Just white boxes.

@waltercool Why would you care? I thought you were an atheist.

@xianc78 I am, but I still have many religious friends, and, traditional architecture matters.

At least, ornaments and details are much important but often disliked by modernists as a waste of money.

Buildings should not intended to be disposable and soulless, but a piece of history, something to be proud for you and your descendants as cultural heritage.
@xianc78 Those buildings are just the evolution of brutalism, the most awful but cost effective buildings.

The line from the Bauhaus school of Architecture is all about creating cheap boxes.
