As a lifelong resident of New England and living in a coastal New England house very similar to the one Bo has been talking about, I am looking at very traditional designs like this http://sejonesphotography.com/images/Landscapes%20and%20CityScapes/New%20England%20Canada/HouseOnMaineCoast%20.jpg

They remind me alot of where I've grown up and (for me at least), it is a very nice atmosphere in which to live, one that would be greatly compromised by a modernistic style of architecture. Coastal New England wouldn't be what it is if Frank Lloyd Wright-style houses were on every corner.
