Two things:
1) I've noticed a tendency in her to judge a project based on the name of the firm/architect rather than the specific project. Tod Williams & Tsien could design a pile of dog turds and she would love it. I don't think she needed to see anything past the name Stern before deciding she hated the architecture.
2) Inga also seems to be firmly rooted in the "anything that doesn't 100% buy into Modernist dogma and attempts to revive traditional styles is bad" camp. Since there have been numerous religious wars on this form based on this topic I'll just leave it at that.
