I`ve seen it from street level several times, and it strikes me as extremely ugly!

This may be one of the best projects of this year, by one of the best young firms in the world. The rhythm of simple firms and structural expression creates a very strong composition. The composition is enhanced by the orange structure. It is a structure that is both graphic, but maintains a delicate touch, no element is forced onto the project, which is something rare these days.

Unfortunately, we rarely see such interesting new architecture here in the USA. I very much like that the 4 towers are identical, but depending on how the light hits them, they look slightly different. See the first and second-to-last photos.

genius in so many ways! I disagree with Paul, I like that the hub is different. But someone’s got a long walk to the loo.

It`s an old architectural techniques, but in any case I love “televisors” ))

“structural identity”, what a vocabulary

it is a very impressive building by its efficiency and variety: shared cores, pilotis and structural façade, each at its own place
very good!

Bof bof….
Bel objet mais il semble dommage que le “hub” ne partage pas la même identité structurel des bâtiments voisin indépendamment de sa couleur…
