The outer faceted shell servers no purpose but to increase surface area and make this building extremely ugly. Without the shell, the building could be a handsome modernist structure.

Also there are like 20 pictures of each building (too many) - it took about 7 minutes to load this page on what passes for broadband in my location.

I like this in contrast to the surrounding traditional architecture. I wouldn't like it if all the surrounding buildings were similar or similarily post-modern.

The Void looks awesome. Great way of adding color to an atrium. If I was there I would do something stupid like try to slide down the tubes.
