Dashwood House reclad | City of London | 73m | 19 fl - Page 16

I think it looks hideous from some angles yet somewhat okay from others. I think using clear glass for the overrun is a big mistake, and quite inexplicable. Overall I think it is rather shoddy, especially given its prime location.

I believe we have ourselves a completed project.

Nice picture. Broadgate also looks stunning in this.

It has turned out ok. Far more fluid in appearance than before which is a good thing as the Victorian terrace below stands out more. Creates a bit more drama as you come out of Liverpool St. again another positive. Thats about it though.

One more for the record

Zedferret · October 12th, 2008, 10:46 PM

Completed Project

GazKinz · October 12th, 2008, 10:58 PM

Yep, the foyer has been all kitted out too.

Job done nicely, I don't even remember what it looked like before the reclad.

***wjfox*** · October 12th, 2008, 11:30 PM

Great, I'll move the thread.

I like this. I think the glazing is slick, and I don't mind the opaque panels, they aren't too overpowering IMO. Same goes for the coloured stripes, hard to notice them from far away, but up close they add a little bit extra to the scheme that makes it more interesting. Considerably better for the area IMO.

Any shots of the ground floor/entrance?

Great shot there, Will.. Almost something quite continental about it, a little Frankfurt-like (well, never been so probably not, lol). They make a great trio, I'm presuming Heron will start to appear in this view with time? Will it be behind 99Bishopgate from here or behind the left tree?

Good pic, an excellent reclad next to a rubbish one.

Actually, Heron will appear some way off to the left. You can already see it if you walk a bit further to the right.
