I hate modern architecture!

And whatever the "condition" is, no I don't think current architecture is helping at all.

It makes it much worse.

And yeah sure if that's how little people with panic and anxiety mean to you, then make it public.

Tell us you don't want our money and we're not welcome.

Yeah, but I'm sure you won't do that either.

So why you asking me?

If we all got together we could shut any of you down.

I'm just giving customer feedback, from the position of somebody who has had panic and anxiety.

I can't force the world to change.

But I know we have collective consumer power.

We can unite to do some things.

And they better start listening.

If you think our money ain't good enough, tell me now and I won't shop with you.

That's fine.
As long as I got a point I'm happy to expand on it.
How many days would you like?

Even if I'm just the 2 percent that experienced panic and anxiety in a mall.

What nonsense.

There's millions of us, and our voices will be heard!

The day will come soon where they change things, or they see their revenues tumble.

Thank You.

Many times more.

Until they listen.
Just the start.

Chin up mate , i suffered appalling panic attacks for 15 years , It does get better with time .

a reply to: hutch622

Thank you.

Having a bit of a laugh too.

Valid issues though.

I mean especially for the mass architecture that's now popping up all over.

Actually, metamaterial science allows some types of glass to absorb dirt into their construction. I am not sure what the specific process is called, but it's pretty close to a self cleaning window in terms of effect. Very low maintenance indeed.

I think it's high time that stairs must fall!

I don't know.

But I still think stairs should fall.

They killed a quarter of Victorians.

You're definitely right; not one size fits all.

But the main ones I know, and the way they remade these malls?

It's like minimalism or something.

Everything is made of glass, and you feel like walking to a mine shaft around every corner.

People who have no problem with it won't understand.

But people who have these phobias and fears find it very difficult to navigate.

Everything bigger, higher and see-through.

And it's time these customers spoke up too.

Give me proper walls and give me proper stairs.

Not a wood-panel above a wood-panel!

And give me proper lifts, not a glass-bowl in the sky, and almost walking into a bottomless pit every few feet.

They have done psychological studies that have proven low income and low esteem people feel like they are "like rich people" and spend more money when they get twitterpated by fancy glass cages. Retarded, but probably true, considering the average IQ of teens and flighty vane people.

This I believe fully.

Yes, I think there's something highly manipulative about such "complete" or "extreme" spaces.

They give us the circus to be their clowns.

It's bombastic smoke and mirrors.

Only casinos are more enticing.
