What's your favourite architectural and interior design motif? That is, if you were given a plot of land about, say, 400km2 and as much government funding as is necessary to build a city for half a million or so, plus residential, commercial, industrial and public services, what artistic style would you go for? I, personally, would likely aim for either heavily neogothic-inspired skyscrapers or some synthesis of art deco and art nouveau, but, notably, I would have completely mixed zoning throughout, large swathes of the city as pedestrian-only, a strong train system and the widest roads being simple two-lane roads.
I'm assuming that the interior design would follow the same style as the exterior design.

THE INSIDE OF A CHRISTIAN CATHEDRAL, ANYTHING ELSE IS HERESY! DEUS VULT There are lots of denominations and lots of architectural styles used over the centuries - for instance, a gothic Catholic cathedral in Vienna might look very different to a romanesque Church of England cathedral in rural England.

practicality would be the main concern

I would make a city however. That part's not important.
But I would inhabit it myself, minus those who I require to keep it running to my accommodations.

Modern. Futuristic. Neon. IT'S TIME FOR NIGHT CITY TO BE REAWAKENED. So what architectural style? Streamline Moderne? Neo-futurism? It's not too hard to look it up on wikipedia. Also, there is no architectural style called "neon".
