When used in moderation outside of cities, power lines look great on the landscape. I guess I'd prefer the pylons simply painted to complement the landscape in a tasteful manner, while still clearly standing out as artificial. The examples in the article aren't good at hiding their nature either. Maybe I'm too used to the sight of the pyramidal trusses but I'm finding most of these designs either kitsch or more ugly than the existing ones.
