> the growing homogeneity of spaces that starts at AirBnB and cafes and spreads

Like I said, there's options when you look outside AirBnB. There is diversity in design if you look outside the haunts of the bourgeois classes.

And look, some people want to struggle reading metro maps. I am not one of them. I, for one, am glad that Harry Beck designed the tube map that would become so influential all over the world. Praise be to Harry Beck! https://youtu.be/cTLCfl01zuE?t=201



But you could go to Paris and have the equally iconic and functional plan illuminé, and it instantly felt like Paris.


Paris is is the crown jewel of the petit bourgeois.
