Here are some better-quality images of Asymptote's 166 Perry Street residential building in New York, which is just about to go on site.

foster can do it better
speaking of perforated metal scrims, i hear that ny firm marble fairbanks is doing something similar to this with a crazy cool perforation pattern at a project under construction up at columbia university. seems like the thing to do these days!
The spaces are too rigid disregarding the entrance.
Want to do something like Jean Nouvel`s 100 11th Av.?
Have to try again !!!
I find a bit disappointing looking at the apartments, it looks like all the “avant-guarde” power got concentrated on the ground floor…
Not impressive at all…
i think its refreshing in its restraint, nice to see a cool entry into the starachitect condo game in new york these days.
Impressive, how about other other views fro mdifferent angles
yah, Nouvel spoiled tilty windows for everyone else cause 100 11th Ave is just waay better
