I agree. I am a C# developer/architect. I find that a little extra white space goes a long way.
I also believe consistency is the most important. This includes naming conventions. For instance all of our methods in a class do NOT contain the name of the class. When reading the code it should kinda sound like english. The easier it is to read, the better. The more consistent it is across a team's code, the more easily Programmer A can maintain Programmer B's code.
White space can help separate out important steps in a process. Visual highlights like//************** Public Methods *********
can help as well when the code for a class is several thousand lines long.
