In recent years, architectural styles have changed a lot. Earlier, they were reflections of culture and heritage, but now all these look the same throughout the urbanisation.
This
change is Linking Words
due to
various reasons and in my opinion, Linking Words
this
is a negative development.
The new uprising structures in the cities are becoming more alike with improvisation in the construction technology. Linking Words
This
is because, with globalisation, architecture sends their designs to farfetched countries via mail or can even have live discussions. Linking Words
In addition
, transporting building materials has become easier nowadays. Not only that, there are more safety features involved in these new constructions making them safe for natural calamities Linking Words
such
as earthquakes or tornadoes. Linking Words
For example
, as per the Tribunal, 40% of constructions in Chicago in 2024 were handled by architects of different continents and were able to withstand earthquakes of 6 Richter scale as well.

This
development Linking Words
also
has a few drawbacks Linking Words
such
as culture and heritage being lost. Linking Words
This
is because no uniqueness is left in the city to inspire locals. Linking Words
Moreover
, local tourism is impacted by a lack of heritage to attract them. As youngsters have no aspiration for culture, they would lose their uniqueness as well and just start working in a rat race of following common structures with no innovation. Linking Words
For instance
, New York University showed that in 2023 only 30% of passing out architecture could draft a unique city plan. Linking Words
Therefore
, innovative ideas are getting lost.
In conclusion, though same structures in cities are part of globalisation and increased safety for people. Linking Words
This
is Linking Words
also
hampering the innovation and tourism industries.Linking Words
