Yes it does, and certianly the various jointing techniques used changes that texture. Any material has texture...and a facade of multiple materials, be it glass and silicon or whatever, certialn has texture.
However, I think the building is too boring to successfully pull off a straight clean facade. 600 is a smaller footprint and has some very wel intentioned curves. B37 is well, a block long and only 3 storeys....but hey I'm always pro flat glass. It can have so slick effects. The panels would have to be rearranged and offset to give it some visual interest. Different size panels would also be fun. I really like the exposed structure between the first and second floors. Too bad they can't clean it up/minimal cladding and leave it as is.
However, I do also lement the gimicky wavy stuff...and I must say I'd always rather have boring than gimicky.
