Chronic Condo Conformity Syndrome infects in-it-for-the-buck architects and builders on an epidemic scale, resulting in a nationwide plague of ultra-planned communities of cookie-cutter townhouses jam-packed onto too-small tracts of land. The architecture—if you can call it that—is characterized by an intense feeling of suffocation and monotonous visual repetition. This “style” may, at first glance, be mistaken for satire. However, it is serious. Very serious.

Caveat: Hold onto your eyeballs. This video will, no doubt, be a challenging viewing experience for many people. Second caveat: When viewed online, this highly compressed file lacks the richness, sharpness, and steady rhythmic pulsation of the original. But it gives you an idea of what this video is about.
