I like this build: it has a great identity and a human dimension too...
"human dimension" ? Are you kidding me?There aren't even landscaping or benches for people.Its a triple-height glorified advertisement that is top-heavy. It looks like it would be a cold, windy space in the winter, and a hot space vulnerable to the sun in the summer. That said, compared to any mall parking lot in America - its wonderful!
