There's nothing more boring that having to look at mile upon mile of sameness for decade upon decade. It becomes insipid after awhile.
Oops, sorry. I didn't mean literally the "international style" architecture. In fact I was going for the total opposite. By international I meant globally recognizable or unique architecture like the proposals at oxford or 1 yonge. Of course we can't have that happening for every proposal but it would be nice to see some more creativity. Sorry for the mix up.
