  1. beautiful building building but metal or plastic fatigue will mean the building's maintenance budget will have to be in the order of 20% within a very short period

  2. I wonder how much some poor person (or probably more likely taxpayer) would need to pay for this ridiculous architects' wet dream.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
