We see buildings all the time, with architecture it's often "love it" or "hate it" as it's a work of ART.

I do not love this work of architecture, it's very "me too" when comparing it to the many concepts of Urban Living from the late 1970's and early 1980's and the "Green Living" concepts of today.

There is no strong concept here, no cultural references or homage to context or brilliant technological executions - no obvious thought.

It looks like a building program thrown together in haste leaving the form to random rather than planned chaos.

Sloppy work.
