i agree 1,000%. especially for the kind of money Simplot's paying for this landmark building.
however, according to the rendering on page 6 of the PDF below, it looks like they are planning on hiding the HVAC around some sort of wall. i'm hoping they will, though it will still look detached from the rest of the design:

the Zion tower did a very good job of concealing their HVAC. future projects should take note of that and do the same.
