Proof involving retractions onto apartments
This follows from the fact that retractions are type-preserving, because they are defined using type-preserving isomorphisms between apartments. (See the argument used in the proof of (3.16) in Suzuki …

Spherical building of an exceptional group of Lie type
Spherical buildings of higher rank are completely determined by their rank $2$ residues, but perhaps that point of view is not explicit enough for your purposes. … There exist several more "geometric" characterizations of the exceptional buildings in the literature, notably by people like Arjeh Cohen and Bruce Cooperstein; see for instance Cohen and Cooperstein - …
