It’s not personal preference my man. It’s the level of work and wonder of the creation between the two. This is a known tactic from Marxism with building design. There’s a reason why modern art style is an absolute eye sore to look at and the older style with stone sculptures of old are majestic.

The classical building has too much power elite influence and the modern is, as you say, designed to demoralise.
I like old brick and stone town buildings and houses which aren't trying too hard.
