No more no less. Very rectangular and very 'modern'. So thats how we architects think. But.......didn't we learn anything from f.e. Robert venturi? We are the experts! Maybe we should read Roberts Musil 'man ohne eigenschaften' and take our expertise not to serious. What about comfort, ambiguity? I think it is actually pretty boring.

I don't work for the HSE but we should be responsible as well as creative, in fact good architecture is never a zero sum game, so there's no such things as sacrificing creativity for responsible design, anyone who tells you that are talking rubbish and should quit the profession.
