Has anyone notice that architecture has gone into a black hole? There’s nothing more exciting than an original house. A house that exceeds the limits on building expectancies. Even model homes now look the same in every way.
Why?
Since around 2003 homes have become less interesting every day. Builders seem to have just lost their touch on reality. Everyone wants an original home! Yet, everywhere we go and every new neighborhood we look at, the houses tend to look the same. Isn’t that odd! The originality of architects has gone out of the window. Maybe it’s because America itself is increasingly becoming boring. Not a lot of people dare to think out of the box anymore at all. Or maybe it’s the costs of these new houses. What happened was realty hit a boom and the prices of houses increased and increased until it became no longer feasible for people to buy them. Now most of Americans can’t even afford to build their own original house. Maybe that will change soon or it may not. Overall, this may end in a few years as soon as marketing prices go down but the bland architecture may continue for a long time to come.
