Okay, me saying something sucks is not the best objective criticism. I'll give you a better explanation. But, first, I am an experienced architect and I love contemporary architecture, but that can be very broad and subjective also. I am more impressed with contemporary architecture that draws upon the context, history, & scale of the area, but give it a fresh look. I do like some of Studio Gang's work. But her work, like Norman Foster's work, & even BIG's stuff, can be just blown up unsophisticated geometric monstrocities. Norman Foster's tower in Philly and his tower in Calgary are so stiff and lack dynamic expression. It's static geometry multiplied & multiplied. Jeann Gang's tower here is like that but more ugly. It looks like Medusa's head rising up over the skyline. It's jagged and loud and does not say anything about the neighborhood. So, it says that it responds to giving more light, etc. per unit, but that shouldn't override it's overrall aesthetic to the city. It says that it relates to the forest? Really?! What a load of crap! It's jarring, and this would never fly in a place like Seattle where we have to go through multiple design reviews to show how it's massing and materials related to the adjacent context and larger context.
