:cool:

7. the first pic suggests to me that the building is a fat and wide one.. and it looks very small from that angle. the other pics say opposite

it's strange and I like it.

8/10

like it, it is very unique indeed, thought it was taller 8/10

6/10 okay.

7.5/10

Very unique and beautiful. I love the flared out base..a bit like Menara Maybank.

don't like it that much - looks like a nuclear power plant and the colours are (IMO) boring..... sorry: 5.5/10

nice shape but only if it had more elegant cladding

strangly kool design, 9.5;)
:cool:

Intresting design.Never seen a design like this before.

9.0/10

3/10 This is one of the ugliest buildings I have ever seen. Hourglass is not a good skyscraper shape. Exterior looks rather ugly as well.

I find this building quite attractive. :) Too bad, though, that there are no pix showing it in its context in the KL skyline. :(

Btw, Riga is also getting an hourglass-shaped HR, it seems. :cool:

Yep, I LIKE Bangunan! A 9.0.

5/10

Extraodinary,....yet not so impressive....This building is representing something which is I have noidea (IMO) but ofcouse it's failed big time. ..For the first time i noticed the Architect might wanted to built it in the new style at the time...unfortunately this inflation limbo-like idea didn't work...4 of the main-support columns seems to be oversize due to only handling an outside facade-newton...The little blue-nipple like wannabes tower infront of the main tower is terribly destroyed the little modern feeling for this project..4/10

8.5/10

Quite interesting

Nice shape! 8.5/10

strange design !! looks alright .. 6/10

interesting, but i dun like the top and bottom

7/10

it looks like one of those wierd hotels from the 60s and 70s. 7/10

Anyone have closeup pictures of this building, especially at the base?

I wonder how tall that neighbouring PNB Building is, I've never seen any height figures for that one.

PNB building I think is around 170m. It is about the same height as the Petronas skybridge ;)
