Terra cotta panel expandage/shrinkage?? And where are the concealed LED channels? |
They wanted the imperfections. It's something I don't know if I like aesthetically either.

The terracotta is shaped like that so when you look at the complete skyscraper, there's curved shadows that stretch as they get higher. One of my favorite parts of the building

I am even more impressed with this tower. The undulations alone were very sexy, however, intentional shading on the terra cotta is really a nice touch. I will now be looking for shading on every sunlit photo! Impressive Tower.

It is an unforgiving angle (it's foreshortened, your seeing a thousand vertical feet in that shot) so it's not as noticeable from farther away. |

No, I saw those too. That actually happens a lot on many buildings as far as I've seen. Hopefully they can lower that basket down and somehow fix it

aren't the tiles just slotted or stacked up in there? it sure looks bad, but i can't tell if it is indeed very bad, or kind of the way its supposed to be, with a lot of give??? :shrug: |
Christ, you guys are just like my Mother.
It looks fine Ma! It's just the severe angle exaggerating everything. |

Ok, now I love this building way more than before. It's an engineering marvel, it has very amazing cladding and it's lighting and crown lighting will all be amazing together. Really looking forward to seeing this complete |
^Mother of Gosh.
Will the entirety of the Terracotta be illuminated? Or just a portion of the building at the crown? I can't imagine they'd light the whole thing, but then again it IS SHoP and JDS.... :yes: |
^ way to remind us of the lighting. more awesomeness to look forward to! :tup:
