Put another way: Compare a newish construction to equally staged houses from yesteryear. Something built in 1918 will probably have wood paned windows and wide trim - and keep these sorts of details around the house. Art nouveau and art deco have their details, even when you stage them to as much of a blank slate as possible. Something from the 70's has some details from them in the construction. Folks still apply their own aesthetic to these places.
These "luxury" apartments do not seem to have things like this. They are missing built-in character, that realistically has nothing to do with the color of the walls or the furniture in the place.
And honestly, even a plain place shows the architect's sense of beauty (or lack thereof).
