Deleuze found in the fold the distinctive sign of the Baroque. Argullol undertook the same task for romanticism and understood that his trademark was found in the abysses, lands- capes on a superhuman scale. More recently, Byung-Chul Han has gone out in search of the common trait of beauty in the present 21st century and has found it in the polished. We are in an environment-world in which it is intended that objects offer no resistance to the eye or to the touch. Urban architecture and design are two of the privileged spaces in which it is possible to observe this phenomenon. But is this as new and idiosyncratic a phenomenon as Han understands it?
