I think art deco is one of my favorites. It still has a clean, modern look that ages surprisingly well, even a century later.

      Neoclassical, palladian, renaissance. The majour difference from similar archictectural styles is the geometric perfection of the spaces and the lack of irregular features. Opposite of that, baroque is all about overdecorating things and having irregular features, like a non spherical ‘barrueco’ pearl. Hence the name.
