But they have updated the hoardings to something a little more slick -

I personally prefer what’s on the hoardings!
What is this annoying structure adjacent to the Chavasse building? Pity they chose to build around it, not the prettiest!
It is bland, but that silver corner feature on the previous design was very much not to my liking. The more I look at it the more horrendous the previous design becomes- this is a little more cohesive and industrial looking. A welcome change for me, interesting to hear others disagree though!
Gotta agree that the latest design is a lot more 'slick'. The original white corner feature looked dated and would have grown tired very quickly. All a matter of opinion though
