There's something about this development that makes me think of a Don DeLillo novel.

In that the finished product resembles an Airborne Toxic Event?

The undulating balconies were unnecessary, IMO. The effect didn't translate well on these towers.

The whole thing is already undulating so much from the massive amount of mullions and spandrel.

Hah, I was more thinking about the 'white noise' angle, but I suppose the two amount to the same thing.

... and yet from some directions it looks quite good (at least to me)...

I prefer these to the majority over at cityplace. Not exactly high praise mind you.

At least studio has some texture and style which CityPlace can't claim.

That's the best shot of this complex I've see to date.

I kind of dont mind the segmented/stacked massing to these... if only there was some different higher quality glazing, maybe some rounded edges. not sure, there's an idea there but it just wasnt executed to the best possible level.

I like the shape, i just don't like the silver grey colour scheme. Would have been great if they had used the same vivid colours they used at street level and the crown all the way up.

looked at in the context of the cluster in the area, these new towers provide some nice diversity of form. They don't look like anything else.

Glass falling from the 25th floor this morning

The glass that fell was from Boutique 2 which is across the street from Studio. Fortunately no one was hurt.
