Condo-monium

Condos have a tendency to pop up like mushrooms, and like mushrooms some of them can kill you.  Okay they wont kill you but they can be pretty DAMN UGLY!  I missed the day in architecture school where we were told to use 10 different materials in place of good design, has anyone else noticed this lately? It is just too easy to splash materials on a Sketchup model - wait a minute these actually ARE Sketchup materials!!! Maybe we should solicit Google to have a better material pallet for Sketchup it might help some of these developers... (yes i blame the developers not the architects on this one). Who builds this Shit?
