Personally, I find the ideological background of that style does very much align with the kind ugliness it evokes. Creates a feeling of a hopeless, purposeless world where nobody cares about you. Aesthetically I don't think it's universally that bad. The real ugliness comes in when you actually look inside the units[0]. Quickly becomes apparent how at odds this style is with the way real people want to live. People go to great lengths to differentiate their seemingly identical unit. As if trying to maintain identity in a jail cell. [0] or at attempts to "prettify" common areas
