I get it. What you dislike most about modern condos is the amount of exposed balconies, the color, and how it treats the street. However, I am confused by some of your examples. Do you not like Tableau's table podium with a piece of art? While yes, Wellesley effectively makes a good public park, I am not too interested in the design. What condo do you dislike the most?By lifestyle i mean vibrancy and animation for CITIZENS AND NOT ONLY FOR RESIDENTS.In small condos, it not necessary but in big one it a must.Maybe 60 stories and more it fair.I like condos that have are elegant,bold,and sophisticated.I will show you some that bring lifestyle,Some that lack style and pretty condos with balconies.When balconies are well placed it can be awesome.I m not against balconies at all.
Condos with lifestyle.
n these 3 development,there is SOMETHING for every citizens. A fountain in 1 yonge, A park for Wellesley on the park and an awesome animated place for Mirvish towers. I love vibrant city,with green space and great architecture.
Beside 1 bloor,L tower,Aura or 1 yorkville there are pretty condos with well placed balconies.
These towers have elegant and refined balconies.This the style i prefer when there is balconies.
They are not the best skyscrapers in world,but they are decent to watch
Now gross and cheap style that include balconies.Some are very ugly(for me)
These tower lack class,style and elegance.
Why ? Because their balconies are gross.
Secondly,For some the choice of color doesn t work at all.Harmony is mandatory to have a good architecture.
This is why we need 1 yonge,mirvish gehry or 2 carlton street to give the dignity that Toronto need.
Thank for your time and comprehension.
