Comment | It’s because they’re cheap shite. Both in design and materials. You’ll see almost identical buildings around the world to the ones getting thrown up. There are a few exceptions but predominantly it’s in similar vain as all the student accommodation that has been thrown up.
Decent, innovative, and thoughtful architecture requires investment in money and time - sourcing good architects and paying them to take the time to design good buildings within the context of the urban environment is not something most developers give a shit about. |
