[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an architect and I just want to clarify a few things: - the new builds people on here are talking about are in most cases extremely well constructed and energy efficient. The giant behemoth often uses less energy than much smaller '40's house. - the ugliness is often not the architects fault. Often we will draw something proportionally correct only to have the developer change everything until it's a whitetrash monstrosity - I personally believe neighbors should live and let live. Worry about your own house/yard and MYOB[/quote] That's easy to say until the developer has cut down a 200 year old tree to cram two enormous homes where once there was one. Blocking neighbors sunlight and killing their gardens.[/quote]
