In the Brazilian forum, one forumer thinks every European city would be happy to have such a project, thinking we are running after the rest of the World in terms of construction and modernity... Following his arguments this style would suite very well into European cities since it was Euro style. I think it is more of a cheap copy of European style...
So, would you like to have that thing in your city's skyline??? :lol::nuts:

Looks better than many highrises in Europe. So sure, why not (in a city like Berlin which only has commieblocks anyway).

Hell no.

Looks like something from asia Vietnam perhaps ? The only european city that could built monstrosity like that could be either Kyiv or Moscow...

Looks like an upgraded commie style. No thanks.

Another piece of jungle lost, we don't have such over here.

Awful kitch it looks like crap , they could name it "Los tastelessos towers" or something.

Looks like bunch of pagodas.

It looks way worse on some models I've seen. It's going up in Sao Paulo, eh?

Nothing against neoclassical highrises such as The Elysian (http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=97328) in Chicago - but those Brazilian ones are going to look awfully cheap.

You can't build 4 of those ones next to each other, on the same base building. That's always going to look kitsch. They better have spread them over a bigger area or smth.

There thousands of buildings in Europe much worse than those, but that doesn´t means that those aren´t in fact buttugly. I wouldn´t like then to be build in my city, or elsewhere in europe but in benidorm or another place like that for the matter.

They would look good next to Eiffel Tower... in Las Vegas

Very kitsch!

If they demolish commieblocks for that, yes.
Otherwise thanks... but no, thanks.

Base part is especially tragic. Towers themselves - OK, they are at least interesting to look at. Build one, f.e. the leftmost tower, and it would be quite OK.

Build one, f.e. the leftmost tower, and it would be quite OK.

Twice the size, of course. :banana:

and without this shitty top

It fits Moscow or Asian cities but not to European cities.

The roofs are European though.
The body is kinda "cartoonish 90's Euro-style".
But it's not THAT scary.
Like someone said - would be nice to replace some rundown commies with this - with a nice existing skyline in background - and it'd pass.
But not in any European city - not by a long stretch.

Looks like something that you get for free with a Happy Meal.

Look like european buildings built on a communist underground, the problem is that the underground is visible ! :lol:

I want to add that the 2 slim towers in the middle look like chinese of japanese style... pagodas !

There's something fascinating to it's ugliness, really. Perhaps it could be used in a movie? "Indiana Jones and the Billiard Room of Doom" or so?

Yes, Moscow is in Europe.

Yes, Moscow is in Europe.

debatable...

I didn't get the design, are they standing on another building or they are just behind of it?

The towers looke out of proportion with the base.
Either the windows in the base are extraordinarily large, or the towers are extraordinarily small.

No F Way!!!

I found the definition... it's a global building (mixing everything) :lol:

Would this be nice for Europe?
If you consider Moscow and Istanbul as Europe then yes.

I doubt, Moscovites and Istanbulians would like to have such a crap in their towns!

quite simmilar buildings in Hanoi, Vietnam

this stile seem to be quite popular in postcolonial countries...

But the one shown in Vietnam is still quite nice!

If you consider Moscow and Istanbul as Europe then yes.

Istanbul?? Even Berlin is more suitable for this kind of architecture than Istanbul. We have many crap but not in this style.

Why should Berlin approve such a crap????

Well, the design looked too communistic to me, I thought it is more suitable in ex-communist cities. But I don't think Europeans die for this style even in Moscow too.

Well, the design looked too communistic to me
whats communist about it :dunno:

It looks too American!

whats communist about it :dunno:

a huge main building and same style blocks with European influenced roofs. Looks kitschy and cold... too much formed stone and almost no decoration... so what isn't communist about it? just palm trees around... If it is not communistic so why everybody thinks Moscow in first place?

Nothing communistic about it, just very "kitschy" that's way everyone thinks about Moscow or Middle eastern cities like Istanbul

hum... sure!

hum... sure!

That's how it was in my case :poke:

I don't really like this project as well... Too "kitsch" for my liking...

By the way, just for you guys to know, the base os the towers is going to be a super luxurious, super exclusive shopping mall...

They would look good next to Eiffel Tower... in Las Vegas

:lol:

Amazing coment!

Would be nice for Berlin. They like such things over there.

:lol:

Amazing coment!

Yes these luxury malls right 2 km from Paraisópolis, Sao Paulo's 2nd biggest slum with 50.000 "dwellers". No wonder luxury shops have to be in malls and not in shopping streets as here in Europe. It is far too dangerous to go shopping in a street.... But it isn't that super luxurious. For Brazilian standards it is, but compared to cities like Baden Baden, Munich, Paris, Milan or Moscow, it is far less luxurious....

No one in Berlin would pay between 500,000 and 2 million € to live in such an apartment monster. No way!

That's because no one in Berlin could afford to pay that kind of money for any apartment/home. :D

No way. Pretty horrible.

That's because no one in Berlin could afford to pay that kind of money for any apartment/home. :D

There are far more millionaires and billionaires in Berlin than in Sao Paulo... :ohno: But they prefer to live in mansions!

I don't think so.

no thanks,we dont like "multi-horn buildings" in my city!

That's because no one in Berlin could afford to pay that kind of money for any apartment/home. :D

Merkel has the biggest one !

It actually seems very south american to me. I dont get why one would build something like that today, i dont like it. Cheap, undetailed, visionless, kind of tasteless. To many things mixed, seemingly without any thought it seems.

Whether or not the dimensions etc in general are suitable and would look good depends on the surroundings. I think it would look unnatural, monstrous in most places.

I don't think so.
There are almost 1 million millionaires in Germany and 55 billionaires. Brazil has 17 billionaires and 160,000 millionaires.... SoI think there are SURELY more!!!! :ohno:

I always thought billionaires live in Frankfurt instead of Berlin:dunno:

I always thought billionaires live in Frankfurt instead of Berlin:dunno:

The city with most billionaires is HAMBURG! Followed by Munich and Berlin. Most billionaires live AROUND Frankfurt, but not inside the town itself!

Why do you insist on that?

Thats OBVIOUS!

Why do you need to compare Germany with Brazil?

Don't you get tired?

There are about 10,000 millionaires in Berlin but over 30,000 in Sao Paulo.

Why did they ban Cello?

Are the mods overreacting again?

Why did they ban Cello?
