Uglytecture

I'm trying to find some "charm" in the ugly buildings that can be found anywhere around the world, even in the most beautiful cities. It's a struggle and it takes a lot of imagination. 

Glass

 

I often wonder about those buildings that are made out of glass and steel. Glass facades, especially the ones built in the last 20 years, have a lack of identity and just feed off the reflections created by their surroundings. Whether this is a beautiful sky, a park or better looking neighbouring structures. I do appreciate the idea of light entering a living or working space, but there are other ways to do it than the example below.
