Looks really beautiful. Thanks for the great pics.

It isn't as black as the renders because of the glass. The glass has has a green tint to it which lightens the overall appearance of the building. A grey tint in the windows would have been absolutely perfect.
Really I don't mind if they make a many more buildings like this...
Something really confuses me here on this forum...A general consensus I gathered since becoming a member here back in June is that people HATE rectangular buildings becuase it's uninspiring and bland....don't get me wrong, I really like X but what confuses me is why this rectangular building is exceptionally 'stunning' to so many of you?
Yes, this.Well, I don't 'hate' rectangular buildings, nor do most of the people here, I believe. What we do have here are a vocal minority of people endlessly repeating their disdain for 'boxes', while the majority of people don't bother responding, since they have learned that it is pointless to argue with them.

Shape and massing are not everything. Like the TD centre, which for many is the pinnacle of minimalist-modernist design, this is a sexy, dignified building that doesn't rely on gaudy features like you'd see on PoMo or faux-historic designs (which are usually very unpopular because they are rarely tasteful).
