Almost a nine... (8.5/10)

9.5/10 very nice.

8/10.....

8.5/10

A stunner. I also see some funky buildings near it.
This building is different without being tacky.

A 8.0/10 mostly because the top looks good,BUT in some views the tower looks very wide.

...Born' to be a landmark!!......The Eulogy of the Hague!

.......10/10....

Beautiful and very good design

Beautiful building, only too bad about the height. This building fits perfectly in the experimental and original skyline of Den Haag.

Nicest tower of Den Haag but that is not so difficult because the most towers in The Hague are crap IMO.

Not crap... Just different, you gotta get used to them to see their beaut. :)

Beautifull building, coming from Rotterdam I really envy this building, My city only builds ugly blocky buildings.

Go The Heague!!!

Wonderfully elegant from every direction... it's only a shame that it is in use by the anything but elegant Ministry of Education...

IMO this is the prettiest dutch Skyscraper. 9.5/10

:redx:

I need to see more images before I can make a proper judgement.

Here ya go:

^ Thanks.

Well that's a nice, slim, sharp design with some nice angular shapes that fit together well. It's tall enough to 'soar', and it's set in a nice location by the water and the greenery. My only complaint is that the colour and facade is a touch drab, but that's only when viewed up close.

Overall, an impressive landmark.

8.5

Yeah, the colour is kind of dull, but that fits the Ministry of Education I guess :D. The only real complaint I have is that they don't illuminate it at all at night. It would make it look so much better at night and allow for some amazing nightshots to be taken as well ;)

8/10

Can't rate because I can't see the photographs. Please Gambini, edit your thread. :)

8/10

8/10 nice

I'm saying a 8.5/10
The design is very cool! But I don't liek the facade choice that much, the brown is just okay....

I like the white cladding, 8

8.5 / 10

If it had been 50 meters taller, it would have been a 10. Now it looks somewhat stubby.

A 10 from some angles, 'only' a 7 from others. That makes an 8,5.

Classy building.

Absolute icon for The Hague, even with the new taller ones that are under construction right now. It could have been a little bit taller too make it look less chubby. 8/10
