Not only that, but for some reason, Americans have felt the need to step up their disdain for aethetics, e.g. putting up indistinguishable warehouse-style buildings everywhere, bolting eye-searing LED light fixtures to every square meter of the building façade, paving everything possible, and eradicating charm or grace in public spaces.
