What a pile of poo. The precast looks so bad in person. This is not how podiums should be designed.

This thread should probably list Graziani & Corazza as the architect at this point. My understanding is that they took over the project, no?

I have faith this will turn out ok in the end ... Great Gulf is typically fairly reliable.

aA tends to ask us to remove their name from projects if they feel they lost control once the Architect of Record does the drawings. Panda was such a case. Here, however, they have not asked to be removed as Design Architect, whom we always list first. If we are asked to remove it by them at some point, we will.

I wouldn't mind being incarcerated in there. And it has the added bonus of having actual walls.

Black shows dirt a lot.
Hopefully the precast will look better after a power washing / rain storm.

Thanks for the updates justken! This is turning out really unfortunately though. I predict aA will not want their name on this project much longer. I mean, just look:

From this

To this

Not even cheap precast used for the main focal point of the design. Wow. The real disappointments here are that Great Gulf is capable of building so much better looking buildings and the design as drawn by aA originally was excellent.
