That was my first reaction seeing the pictures. Few moments later it's the same! Such a cool color! More glass buildings should be like this! :eek:
RafflesCity September 5th, 2003, 05:08 PM 8/10
Yes. The colour is striking and ostentatious. I also like the series of setbacks which help to bring the mass to life and those vertical elements make this thing soar.
I feel the 2 measly spires are unnecessary though.
renell September 5th, 2003, 06:19 PM 7.5/10 nice color, good set of setbacks :D

It's not often you see a gold-building (I only know two, this one and KLI63 Building). :)
SUNNI September 6th, 2003, 02:09 AM nice, i like the colour and shape..8/10
SteelCity32 September 6th, 2003, 05:07 PM nice one...7/10
de flatneuroot September 6th, 2003, 07:38 PM 3 0r less. IMO one of the most ugliest buildings.
james2390 September 7th, 2003, 03:20 AM its a nice design but the color is a little bit...strong, 7
PinoyBoy September 7th, 2003, 08:16 AM this one is just stunning! but i do think the color could be toned down a bit, perhaps incorporating and different color or surface like granite. but still, a very nice shape and design
9/10

And i think one more in Tianjin, one in Hong Kong and another one in Jakarta. I don't know the name of those buildings
SeeMacau October 5th, 2003, 11:41 AM A very nice one !!

New Jack City October 6th, 2003, 12:33 AM 7/10...The gold color suits the building well, as well as the facade is decent. The top and setbacks aren't great though.

MCC December 29th, 2003, 07:13 PM 7/10 Too bad gold is the only color. It would look better with other colors.

empersouf October 22nd, 2004, 06:07 PM Toooo much goldcolour, 7,5, the top of the lower building is ugly.
Monkey November 14th, 2004, 03:56 AM Wow ... a gold skyscraper. We should have more of these. :)
Nice building. The actual design is very ordinary but the colour is great.

Scruffy88 December 30th, 2005, 06:21 AM 9/10 its interesting how the towers do not match, but I love the setbacks on the left (south) tower that almost look like a glass pagoda ontop. Nice assimilation of the culture in the tower. The color is rather strong, but ballsy in a good way.
krull January 1st, 2006, 05:04 AM Amazing... It gets a 10.
