I really love the quality and general concept, but I still think the design was poorly executed.
Instead of the atrium/crown being flushed with the main facade it would've looked better set back a few feet, not too much, not too little. The diagonal 'exposed' beams also make the tower look fragile. I'm not saying it is, it just doesn't have much 'support' visually. And lastly there are way too many horizontal dividers. The facade looks too crowded and from afar looks boring.
The glass looks great imo. I'm glad they went with a darker glass in the atrium. Gives it a visual sturdiness imo. Could've been a great tower, but turned out being just ok.
