In the past I thought the same. But after visiting the original Bauhaus buildings [1] in Dessau / Germany my mind changed. There is a beauty in this simple, clear and elegant design especially considering the contrast to typical corny buildings of that time.

I had the same feeling. The elegance and human-centeredness of the original is often lost in lesser implementations of the style.
