It could also possibly just be a fatter core, with narrower / deeper rooms in plan. The perspective of the rendering might also make it look chunkier than it really is. Just a guess; I haven't sought out floor plans of this to confirm it.

Regardless, Detroit can stand to have a few more modern, blue-glass boxes. These are a unique-enough phenomenon in Detroit that it still stands out. As opposed to if something like this were built in Chicago, it would be entirely forgettable. There's also a little bit of visual interest happening at the base / ground level.
