I grew up in a city full of “unnecessary” ornament and spent a while in a city where everything was turning into absolutely brutalist 5-over-1 apartment blocks. That ornament does a lot to make the place feel welcoming and human.

Mood is a thing that design and ornamentation effects. It is a thing neglected by engineers and capitalists on the whole but it is important.

It all depends on the quality of the design and engineering. If you feel alienated and shitty in a place, then it probably wasn’t designed very well.

I don’t know where all the “capitalists” come in to the picture as that is a whole other matter.
