Postcard from a disappointment



How easy it is to criticise, yet criticise I must when an architect of world acclaim designs a building of funky form with windows that neatly angle away from vertical, but forgets that the water is going to run off the very same windows exactly vertically and not along the angle that he has contrived.  I could go on of course, but is a repaint every two years really a sustainable outcome?

Sadly the execution is not as the sketches may have suggested, nor how the fans proclaim it to be.
