forgoes a good design


Explanation:
There's a disconnection between architecture professionals, the real state market and public authorities. Modernist Tradition still prevails in universities and the real state market almost always forgoes a good design.

Explanation:
You may think this is an 'over translation', but I think this is actually the criticism being made here.
You could also say something like "ignores good design criteria".
