banal black box
This is not a box, nor is it banal. Are you instead a bot? Maybe that’s the “b” word you were looking for
Ok…who introduced the word “banal” to Millenials? Cuz, like, they’re using it more, like, than like? Like right?
I am sure the “banal” folk aren’t even from Chicago or live near the region. The international style became trademarked with Mies here. If anything, we are returning to our midcentury roots. I like some color here and there and would love a stronger presence of brick and timber. And some do nothing but whine about stuff being too glassy.
Anything gets proposed or built in this city; the architecture “experts” come out of the woodwork to give us a piece of their mind.
Best part, I have heard 3 year olds express more eloquent thoughts and opinions.
The day’s letter was B not too long ago, and the Banals made that a personality.
Nothing but a bunch of trolls who have thrown “banal black box” into every comment section by default, even for buildings that are not boxes, not black, or are neither.
