Well, I hate Gehry worse, for all of the reasons you mention and then some (his anti-accessible redesign of the Art Gallery of Ontario still sticks in my craw, because only a fucking sadist takes wheelchair ramps out), but if I pick on Gehry all the time, people might think I don't hate the other starchitects. And they're all quite despicable. It's like, if you're an architect, you can be a) unemployed, b) throwing up malls and cookie-cutter houses for some company, or c) one of three people in the world who is allowed to express their, er, "creativity." Which is why our modern landscape is so atrocious.
pitched roofs are the roofs of the peasants and the peasants are an inherently conservative class, or whatever it was.
Hahahah. Ohdearlord. I should have picked on Gehry. He really is the worst of them.
Or as I should say, ping you with my drill down into the low-hanging fruit of the content. We can loop-back over the deliverables.
You have a talent for this. I'm a little frightened.
