I think this photo (http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5PEXDshWZlA/UaTCV9uc1OI/AAAAAAAAAC...) perfectly illustrates why this type of architecture is a literal nightmare. It has no concept of its' physical surroundings or geography, it's just someone's abstract fever dream plucked from the sky and plopped into a setting where it makes zero sense.
