Sad……. so many comments about the same thing….. I rate the architect for managing to put up such a structure in an islamic state, he has certainly made his point….. just shows you what kind of people live in Doha..

I recently visited Doha and gasped when I first saw this building. It is beautiful, absolutely beautiful. A huge modern piece of architecture yet enveloped in what appeared to be intricate lacework, such a contrast of styles and skills; new build combined with a very old skill, lacework, it was breathtaking. I am slightly shocked by some of the comments above and a phallus was the last thing that entered my thoughts when I saw this building.

The lack of culture shown with the cretinism of most comments is amazingly depressing. I hope that none of those people are architects. Or maybe they are, which would explain why so few buildings in the US offers any interest.
Nouvel is in the company of architects, not only with talent and imagination, but with a respect for the local historical context. He also is an amazing architect striving to push the envelope, looking for new technology and materials, making buildings more interesting to look at and also more efficient.
Any one talking about dicks and dildos obviously have a problem and should be examined. Change your diet, exercize and it will work better.

Is Mr Nouvel suffering of some kind of frustration?
It reminds me an episode of HIMYM for those who know.
