Sort of an aside: this reminds me of a presentation I saw years ago by an architect(?) talking about architectural anti-patterns. My favorite comment was how planters are added around buildings as an afterthought as "green band aids". Unfortunately for me I have no idea who the presenter was nor the venue. It was maybe a TED Talk but this was back when YouTube's only content was ripped off Newgrounds animations and clips from The Daily Show. It must have been over ten years ago because the Iraq war was mentioned as being a contemporaneous event. I'd love it if someone knows the presentation I'm talking about. I think a lot of the points (as I remember them) are germane to this article.
