I think it looks best from the ground looking up. It still looks like the letter T from other angles and I will never get over that

AW · January 29th, 2012, 05:51 PM

Agreed.

A couple of pictures from yesterday morning, 2012-01-30, when the temperature was -9 ºC and the windows partly covered by frost.

Skrapebook · January 31st, 2012, 05:38 PM

"Cool"!

Very very ugly! The building IRL does NOT look as nice as it does on the picture. IRL it looks like a big gray hammer. The glas looks like lumpy black iron.

What are you smoking? I pass the building almost everyday, and it pretty much looks exactly like the pictures. If it's a gray, cloudy day, it looks gray, but if the weather is nice, it looks great.

I do think they could do better at night though. At the moment it's pretty much completely dark at night. Which I guess is good for the environment, but it means that it doesn't look nearly as cool at night as the renders did.

I thought the lit rooms would light up the hotel at night, wasn't that the purpose from the beginning?

As someone said, the building looks GREAT in nice weather. In dull weather the building looks dull. Dynamic, at least
