      Or if they are into some of that postmodern nonsense

      The exact opposite. They call “boring” buildings as anything related to the “modern/post-modern” architecture, where everything is made of glass and steel, or just slabs of concrete that have no ornament whatsoever, or that is so detached from the local where it has been built that makes it impossible to know if the building is in Shaghai, Nairobi or Mexico City.

            Yet, by the photo I’d certainly take it as an example of “post-modern” design. No place for people, not inviting. It seems like something attempting to impress outsider people passing by, not something made for people to stay and belong.
