It might seem harsh to people by lower floors, but this design is actually good so no one walking by in the street can see too much of their interiors (privacy is something precious), whereas upper floors are those to enjoy the most natural daylight.

Very smart design, it seems to me.
I keep going back and forth between option 2 and 3. but the nuance of window size change makes two very unique. guess we will see what hdlc likes

btw even though its a fad that basically skipped new orleans altogether, im glad to see the all glass building is on its way out. never liked those buildings personally since they seem very cold and bland, but also in a place like NOLA require too much cleaning and the reflections can be brutal too depending on light angle. I just find a mix of glass and other materials to make for a much more interesting building! anyway thats my 2 cents
