Art deco and to some extent modernist architecture are my favourites.
I like almost all of the existing styles, but I can't relate to most of the new structures, especially the glass-only ones. I think that art deco was the peak of style, balancing perfectly between glass and solid facade. After that everything just took a dive into being way too odd looking (mixing styles, adding cheap details and ugly shapes) or simplistic (box made of glass).
