> There's a distinct snobbery to some of the architectural commentary, particularly in lamenting the sameness of stick-built "blocky, forgettable mid-rises" providing apartments for the masses. It is a critique that could only be written by someone who has no trouble affording their rent. This is easily invalidated by the fact that villas drawn by architects also follow this withe cubes trend in many European countries.
