Jah Lush Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Reminds me of Canary Wharf. Utterly soulless. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/20715-the-metamorphosis-of-edf-threads/page/2/#findComment-507580 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJKillaQueen Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I quite like it (them). The don't look anything like the twin towers either. Just because they are tall and oblong isn't enough of a resemblance for me.

El Pibe Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 >> but you cant get upset because someone wants to build two buildings next to each other that happen to be tall and exploding in a sort of pluming office furniture and burning jet fuel fashionNo you're right, its a classic architectural design pattern ;) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/20715-the-metamorphosis-of-edf-threads/page/2/#findComment-507583 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brendan Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 The colloquial use of the term ?believe? really gets to me. Someone just asked me if I ?believe? in the national infrastructure plan. Well there is a copy of it sitting on my desk but I concede that this alone is not reliable proof of its existence. The look on their face indicated that they weren?t trying to pass the afternoon by considering a philosophical conundrum.I wonder if this world will wake up tomorrow to find that it is actually a butterfly that was just dreaming that is was a universe filled with inane annoyance.

DJKillaQueen Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 LOL....I think those pics maxxi show just how different the two buildings are, rather than how similar they are but I have to admit that it may be that the 'cloud' idea was inspired by the twin towers. I still think the result is an interesting and attractive building....although I know it won't be everyone's cup of tea.
