Now thats not a bad thing.. artistic impression is important.

It does make me wonder however why where there is all this talent in architecture the majority of homes/buildings are drab and unimaginative.

Only a very few buildings are notable. I dont think they should be placed next to listed buildings – as in the Zaha case, but thats just my view on that one case in point.

But reminds me the of the school of architcure that considers themselves more scupltors of large 3D art, than creators of functional space.
