I doubt those large window formats fucks up the view. the metaphor is not overdone. This is a very nice building.

Why does the window zig-zag? If you are going to f-up the view you should have a good reason.

It’s a beautiful building, but why… put a moat and a bridge in there… pretty ridiculous (and not uncommon in newer pavilions and courtyards. 1-meter wide moats… keeping fortresses safe since 2003. I’d rather see one of those amazing steel cable suspension bridges that allow Kathmandu people to walk across sludgy river banks around the city.
