How much did it cost and how long did it take to construct?

By the way, I have no affiliation with the architects even though it might be difficult to believe, it's just somethimes i am amazed at how easily we criticize in forums under the anonymity of the forums, that's all : D

I totally agree with both of you, but one thing is criticism, and a very different thing is half-assed trolling like that first comment from a "manuel", by all means criticize but take the time to understand the project first.
Finally, the idea that this micro-cosmos that a blog post has developed into is anything like the real world, like a consumer criticising a prject in real life is almost ludicrous.

Architects and designers have a huge responsibility. Their designs have a tremendous effect on the lives of many, therefore we should embrace and share all of the criticism we can. Anything under perfect design is unacceptable.
Someone's level of experience in design has no correlation to the value of their opinions. Design is for the people, therefore people should critique it, and designers should listen.

If you make something that manifests itself in the public domain, you MUST expect public scrutiny. The reasoning that the only critique may come from those who are better designers is an almost fascist statement to make. If you can't stand the public critique, get out the public kitchen!
