Personally, those Flame Towers are fugly. They remind me of Easter Peeps.

Haha, it took me a couple of minutes to see what you were saying but I finally saw it.
I will say I love how the Facade of those buildings can have any color and design they want. It looks like the skin of the buildings has it built right in between the floors. It would be nice to see developers put more effort into lighting here.
I also used that as an example of a bold design. Austin is in desperate need of something other than square and rectangle boxes. This is where I'm putting hope with the ECC site. If anyone is going to push the boundaries, it sounds like it will be them.
