Great essay. Beautiful architecture is important. I wish she'd use less jargon or have a beginner's guide.

She does have a beginner's guide: https://mcmansionhell.com/101

In fact, if you can filter out the snark (which is almost impossible), she is extremely knowledgeable about how architecture works and what makes buildings look good. But "good" is a matter of taste, last I checked.

I must confess that if I weren't such a kindhearted, virtuous, humble, nice, respectful person, I would probably write with Wagner's tone most of the time. ;)
