I'm having a really hard time vibing with neo-traditionalist architecture discourse. Like, I like beauty, but I just find the thing on the left much more beautiful than the thing on the right.

Am I... missing something? https://i.imgur.com/Cqm1D2g.jpg

Many great points. Architecture like design, is about people. When we design a website we think about how a user will roam through, how they will act, feel. With structures (AND) the space around them, we ask: how will humans walk around? Feel with towering concrete built at scales that far surpass themselves?

There are feats if engineering and design to be respected. And a time and place for all: looking up at skyscrapers is an awe-inspiring humbling feeling. So maybe the right question is: for what purpose is left vs right best served?
