From Siberia to the Gulag:

Really ugly any way you cut it.

 

[Redroom Studios]

atleast it blocks out Festival Tower from the northwest! hate the massive concrete bunker of a podium on this one but atleast the shape of the tower is a bit more interesting than Festival...

Cinema or the core from that vantage point?

Some glass up on the east side at the south end. Looks pretty good.

And with that small glimpse, we can write off Cinema Tower entirely (if one hadn't already).

Oh give me a break.. No you can't.

Though you wrote off the building before it even started.

Most absurd comment ever...

Well, yes you can. Window wall cladding is, by nature, a system that is repeated all the way up the tower. Therefore, when you've seen one panel, you've essentially seen them all. Cases in point are Ice (phenomenal) and Aura (atrocious). But being a famous architect, you knew that already!

You are right though, I wrote this one off at the initial public consultation over four years ago (April 2008).

ProjectEnd wrote off this project as soon as he read the words "Kirkor".

I did too.

Silver mullion caps with dark green?

Why on EARTH would they not have chosen a dark grey or something to hide the divisions between windows? I shake my head. I was really looking forward to this one.
