- They messed it up in Toronto. Ended up using siding, instead of the intended glassGnash
- libeskind is pretty groovy..neverscared
- looks like plasticutopian
- it's fantastic********
- The ROM interior is messed up too, full of walls that useless angles and tripping hazards.i_monk
- I think this is stupid.cannonball1978
- at least he puts some plastic emotion in his geometry and we don´t have to experience boring cubes- grids at a 24/7 rate...neverscared
- the retrogression to modernism always baffles one..neverscared
- Some of his stuff is genius (the museum here in Denver is amazing), but he's kinda one-liner, too. His early drawings are stunning, tho.formed
- Yeah no.monospaced
- very precise one-liner i guess and there its were it´s happening, also supersmart ... probably hard to grasp for people like mono to understand whats going onneverscared
- historical wise in architecture with the deconstructivists from the nineties... his drawing are great.. pretty much like hadid´s drawing and heir buildings areneverscared
- not that of a burner.neverscared
- as always it takes it´s time till "normal" folks understand a couple of decades later what´s the new stuff and why it is important why it looks like that.neverscared
- it´s like when scorsesse made - passion of christ - and the church won´t have it .. in this case new forms of geometry doesn´t sit well with the folks.neverscared
- excuse me?monospaced
- acting like one must be somehow elevated enough to comprehend what this is about is comical. can you not understand how someone can get this and not like it?monospaced
- pretending like the reason is they don't understand it is condescending AF, because understanding it does not immediately mean one will like itmonospaced
- Also, it's not "important" that someone took designed abstract minimal geometry and juxtaposed it with classical architecture. Its also not entirely originalmonospaced
- lol @ the Scorsese analogy too, that's funny (because it's nonsense, of course)monospaced
- yes. that what they said about scorsesse too. they get it but don´t like... 10-20 years people will come around and don´t be so mimimi i dont like it ... cozneverscared
- they finally caught up with the architectural zeitgeist of 20 years before....neverscared
- pretty anti-scientific to go nope.. although its the apex of philosophical breath and tecnological virtuosity.neverscared
- it ´s like trump who wanted to build classical again coz he didn´t like modernism ..his mind couldn´t grasp the elegance .. same here . with different evolutionneverscared
- ary steps of architectural progress..neverscared
- I don't have a problem with this as a concept, but I challenge you to come to Toronto and tell me the ROM Crystal was done well.i_monk
