7/10. It's OK

7.5/10

I only gave it a 6.5. It's just OK in my opinion.

Should be alright.
7.5/10

6.5/10...Not much to say, it's decent and respectable. A bit bland on the side view.

7/10 it's OK

Not bad, the actual building looks better than that rendering.

The only thing i see are renderings.....any real photos?

It seems quite nice to me, but i would like to see a proper photo.

not bad....6.5

7/10 ok, though from those photos it looks very stout for a building 201m tall

I don't trust the rendeing, this one must be ugly. A 5 will learn them

Emporis.com has upgraded the height to 222 m.

The building is visible as being on the right of the under construction tower in the two photos.

It's unique and massive!
9/10

7.0, two towers pasted in one, they should split this building!

I loooove it. Round and square and crisp all around great. 10/10

8/10. - I like it!!

A bit stumpy looking. Hard to believe it's over 200m.

Fairly average and bland.

6.5

wtf.. chinese is sux...
and this building is Very Very sux

6/10 looks like a 130m building :bash:

6/10 - It has a fairly nice, shiny-shiny glass curtainwall, which contrasts nicely with the lighter trim, and again , I will give them credit for trying to do *something* with the roof.

But - The roof is still not that great; it doesn't really seem well thought out. It's also fat, which, along with the horizontal emphasis on the spandrels, really kills the height. And it's simply not that exciting shapewise either....

6.5/10.

Sory but I hate it, 4/10

Looks taller than it is. I don't much prefer it myself. I give it a 7/10.

Nice design, 8

Fits with Shanghai well! Like the rounded part of the building!

6.5/10
nothing special

5.5/10. The curvy bit is nice but the rest is rank.

7/10

Short but not a bad design. 6.5/10

wtf.. chinese is sux...
and this building is Very Very sux

why hasn't this asshole been banned?

no, little one, i think you "sux".....

:stupid:

...

this building isn't that special but it ain't horrible like so many of you seem to harp on... of course it must be bad, it's in a chinese city. :|

my vote: 7 for size and form.
