Prince Charles Was Right: Modern Architecture is Still All Glass Stumps and Carbuncles

Genius is as rare among architects as it is among the rest of us. Most buildings will be the creation of talentless people who are simply doing their job like you and me. The less they try to be original and expressive the better. To pretend to these qualities in their absence is to jettison the three most important social virtues which are modesty, humility and the ability to act as though others are more important than yourself.
