Looking at this from the writer's side, on one hand, relatively few of the comments I get back from my editors (which usually means Kromm) are about stylistic issues, which I like to think means I've gained some sense of house style. But on the other, I've had more than one person say that I have a distinctive prose style in my GURPS writing (for good or bad!). So I think you can have your own voice even within the constraints of house style.
