Charlie's idea of architecture is Portmeirion as re-imagined by Barratt Developments. But purely for external consumption.

Modern conceptual art is art marketing, a branch of futures trading. To like or dislike it misses the point. There's plenty of representational art around, it's just that C4 prefers women with Nancy Cunard haircuts and men in brothel creepers as art's spokespeople.
Some contemporary art is most affecting.
