7/10 - This tower reminds me, somehow, of a transistor radio; it has an interesting, sleek 50's look, especially with its curves and those "fins" visible on the last picture. I also like the blue on the facade. And the two antennas work well, because the curving setbacks fit them into the curves of the tower, emphasizing its symnetry.
It doesn't soar skyward as well as it might, however; it's a bit blocky broadside on, and could probably use some setbacks or indentations.
Finally, those contrasting strips along the facade are NOT the right color at all, and it would help the height if they were vertical.

I like this building although the front facade is a bit blocky, the pic of it from the side is great...gives it a futuristic look from that angle...love the double spires as well....8.5/10

I really love this sleek skyscraper. The tint of the glass, the twin
spires at the top, the overall design, the way it dominates the
Shenzen skyline. I love how it looks from the side, too.

Are we looking at the same building? I think this building is gorgeous, the double spires really add something

6.5./10 too futureristic to me

The design makes it hard to imagine people voluntarily being inside of it.

TropicalSQ744 · May 5th, 2003, 06:28 PM

Very classy and elegant to look at! The sloping angles when viewed from the side are especially pleasing to the eye!

Great shape overall

The glass dosen't fit the building that well I think.. Or maybe I'm just biased towards blue glass

9/10

5/10...I don't like it. The aqua color isn't working, it's too skinny and horribly wide, the two spires aren't that great, the only thing good about this building is the height and it's uniqueness.
