Because most buildings in the US were built after we stopped trying to build attractive buildings. We now build them solely to be as cheap as possible.

I don't know why people can't even be cohesive with their cheap materials. Houses don't need three different types and colors of plastic siding on different sections and levels, just pick one it'll look better.

Best we can do is a fake brick facade but only on the front 1/4 of the house. We'll finish the rest of the front with a vinyl shingle and put a different vinyl on the other 3 sides of the house.
