Tom,
I’m jumping about quite a lot on this thread but the intent was never to make this about the “dark ages” (as defined by this site) Vs modern minimalism.
My intent was to say that I feel there are a few people / blogs / influencers who seem to promote a “know-it-best” attitude to what is good architecture Vs bad architecture whilst not really critically analysing anything beyond a bunch of buzzwords. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing etc…
But as I say, my issue…
I will stop now and hope this thread moves down the page…
