According to Associate professor Melonie Bayl-Smith from UNSW Built Environment, architecture today suffers from an originality syndrome.

"When architects try to do something completely original, they don’t necessarily produce a better building," she said, adding that originality shouldn’t necessarily be the highest value of an architect.

"I see that architecture today, in some cases, has become a very form-based exercise, often at the expense of the quality of space or other crucial aspects of architecture. It doesn’t matter anymore whether it responds to anything to do with site or place or people — apparently, we just want it to look different," Bayl-Smith said.

The professor argued that creating a well-thought-out product is more important than doing something for the sake of its novelty.

"I think we as a profession need to do a better job of recognizing what does work well, and developing and enriching those approaches, whether it’s spatial design, material design, the processes of building assembly, sustainable practices — all the different things that contribute to making a great, long-lasting building," she said. "There are enough poor buildings out there; we don’t need to keep 'inventing' more of them just to try and be 'original'."

There are a few basic architectural concepts that explain why some buildings just look off. First, we need to look looking at their mass.

"The primary mass is the largest shape in the building block. The secondary masses are the additional shapes that form the facade of a building." So if there are too many of them, the house has no concept and looks bizarre. Also, buildings need balance. Good-looking houses are usually symmetrical or asymmetrical. Any other way of designing them could result in conflicting rooflines and other architectural elements.

It's called "facadism". It's a massive problem in London. Perfectly good historic buildings get pulled down and replaced with horrible modern structures simply because it's more profitable for a developer to do that than make an old building work for them. As a concession to the planners they retain just the facade. Not only is it cultural vandalism in pursuit of greed, but it is also a disaster for the environment- destroying perfectly good buildings releases the building's embodied carbon and requires vast quantities of carbon-emitting steel and concrete production.

Even though today we have countless tools to make a design work, a few mistakes still end up getting made quite too often. According to Build It, it's not a good idea to save some money on parts of construction that will be difficult to upgrade later, like bricks or roof tiles. Also, employing too many different materials could be one of the reasons a house turns out wrong. It can make it seem overly "busy" and distract from other features.

Architects have the power to make our lives much easier and new buildings and public spaces need to accommodate and protect society, not confuse us.

After all, a report by the United Nations (U.N.) stated that 55% of the world’s population lives in urban areas today. A number that is expected to increase to 68% by 2050. Our environments are changing at an incredible rate, so designers, urban planners, and architects have to face the challenges to ensure they serve the people who live there.
