Yeah I've got it. I do like his stuff/general modernist stuff in isolation, but I think if you had a house full of it, it'd be really bland and emotionless (as evidenced by photos of his studio). I think sometimes a design needs a few aesthetic flaws or components which are slightly out of proportion, or even just a slightly whimsical edge, to make it characterful - one of the reasons I sold my Braun AW22 is that (whisper it) I found it bit boring.
But on the other hand, I admittedly have terrible taste.
