Thank for your very interesting essay about beauty and architecture. Although beauty is subjective i feel like overtime beauty that used to be one of the main characteristics of architecture has been diluted and abandoned due to financial reasons: how to make the most amount of money per square foot but also due to regulations & restrictions (safety, etc). It is very interesting to read someone else’s perspective.

Indeed dear @parmengo. You have definitely revealed one of the harshest realities of the architecture industry. Seldom there are occasions when real beauty is ignored and taken for granted for the sake of economic gains. And that pretty much happens to most structures, buildings, and projects around the world.
On the contrary, for some works of architecture, various types of restrictions and regulations in a way simply challenge the Architects and Designers involved, pushing them to squeeze their brains and come up with creative solutions to enhance the aesthetic qualities of their masterpieces despite the looming issues. Thank you for voicing out your valuable insights! 😊
