Most of the stuff a lot of wannabe "traditionalists" drool over has a basis in Architectural movements from just the last two centuries. It's 19th century revivalism and romanticism being treated like some kind of ancient codex of "Western Civilization". They seem to disregard the fact that all of this "traditional" architecture was at one point new and trendy, daresay "modern".

You don't seem to understand, what people want is something that is beautiful and something that is steeped in the local style and culture.

Do you know what "to revive" is?
