Yup. And she's still full of the BS they ladled into her in design school, because actual bosses and clients haven't knocked it out of her yet.
Every 30 years or so, the undead horror of the Bauhaus style rises up from the grave to afflict the human race with its icy, soul-destroying touch. The design students are the first to succumb, because it is an easy style to learn and makes them think they are hipper and more experienced than they can possibly be at that age.
(I bet Lauren Kyle thinks Futura is the best typeface ever invented. That's part of the disease, too.)
So people go around defacing our cities with black and white rectangles, no other colours and no other shapes, building houses with flat roofs in snowy climates where a flat roof is just asking for the house to collapse, and constructing interior monstrosities like the McDeath House. Then, finally, sane people get sick of this crap and hire an exorcist to drive the horrible thing back into its tomb.
Stephen King was wrong about a couple of things. Pennywise does not use red balloons to steal children from soulless small towns. He uses black and white rectangles to steal art students from soulless big cities. But yeah, everything else is pretty much according to the program.
