		<description>I am actually a fan of this design (although I would like to see Wiel Arets&#039; proposal, since I think he is also an architect of substance and quality). The final result could obviously vary greatly depending on the execution of this project, but sometimes I feel like I am one of the only people who is a fan of OMA&#039;s rebellion against iconic, expensive, and overly pompous designs scribbled out by the likes of Gehry and Hadid. 
 
I highly prefer OMA&#039;s most recent modern designs such as Milstein Hall, Garage Centre in Moscow, the Shenzhen stock exchange, Rothschild bank, and the Taipei performing arts centre. These buildings are actually realisable and have a true social function that is reflected in their forms. 
 
If more architects spent more time focusing on the 99.999% of architecture that we ignore, instead of ignorantly applauding the rare .001% of architecture created by people who act more like whimsical romantic artists than architects, we might actually have a world with man-made environments that actually improve society through architecture. </description>

		<description>OMA is becoming more and more boring... This is right next to that lame bank they did last year. They are becoming the next SOM pretty quickly...

		<description>Wiel Arets design was really good  
(I saw the plans, cause we where to come up with a different scheme) 
 - G-star were super ignorant to ditch him. ... 
 they just went for the fame . The OMA design is really borring! 
but hell:  G-star themselves are long time outdated and only sell to farmers out of the province. All they do is restyling.  
Its just a pity to have yet another borring building along the ring ... </description>
