What style of architecture do you guys prefer?
I prefer modern/contemporary although I am also into the "country" house style with high wooden ceilings.

Great! We are looking to buy our first house. It is tough because I still have student loans from my MBA (24 yr old), but I just landed a role as a VP Portfolio Manager at a quant HF (only because of my MSF - my MBA is useless imo) so I have to keep my costs contained. Aside from the fact once I begin working internationally I plan to buy some houses wherever I work for investment purposes.

Many of the nicer buildings in New York are Renaissance Revival or Neo-Renaissance.
Old school European style. XVI and XVII century architecture.
Pretty diverse, I like old school on the outside with a modern cut inside.
I can't help but think they are incredibly ugly, especially the stone buildings in NYC. While I was walking through times square today to work, there is a mix of buildings, but the more attractive ones are the sleeker glass buildings. The stone buildings from I guess the turn of the century? are large blocks of bland rock in my opinion.
So unattractive. NYC is such a beautiful city ruined by these ugly buildings that are outdated
Anything stone. Like DM, I tend to favor older buildings with cutting edge interiors. I really dig blends of old and new, but not fusions, the juxtoposition makes me feel at home.
Art Deco and Beaux Arts by far, like the Chrysler and Flatiron buildings respectively. There was a time when people crafted buildings like art works, with carefully constructed and placed sculptures throughout (think the gargoyles son the Chrysler) instead of the generic cookie cutter glass towers they build nowadays.
Also please stop trolling.
I agree that buildings that buildings used to be a work of art, but the enjoyment that is derived from a piece of art depends on the eyes looking at them.
To back up, gothic architecture is incredible. my opinion of an ugly stone/concrete (whatever it is) building is the marriot building in times square.
I believe it comes down to the immediate personal feeling when one enters a buildings - I view contemporary/modern as being more open and uplifting as opposed to stone which I view as needing an organ playing while I enter
