Most Beautiful Architectural Style?
Moorish/Moroccan architecture
There's other architectural styles that have more elaborate exteriors, but I prefer a minimalist exterior with a more elaborate interior.
Alhambra (Al-Ḥamrā)
, Granada
Alcázar (Alqáşr’)
, Seville
University of al-Qarawiyyin
, Fes
Madrasa Bou Inania
, Fes
Ben Youssef Madrasa
, Marrakech
Menara Gardens
, Marrakech
And have you ever seen a Moroccan/Moorish Riad?
Such elegance

This style dates back to Medieval times.

They stole the Saracen arches and the intricacy from the Andulusian Muslims, so it's appropriation tbh.
I mean, they tried, but failed to achieve the Moorish level of craftmanship.
The Iggy Azaelia of Architecture.

De Stijl
Neoclassical

To actually live in I love the Colonial style.
The examples on this page are beautiful.
I love Barcelona's architecture; really dramatic and expansive.
