For me, this is very typical of LA's view of architecture.......what I call always looking for the cutting edge. Good cutting edge is hard to pull off; hence some of the bad architecture LA gets.
Examples of attempts at cutting edge architecture that you think failed? Not arguing, just wondering which ones you think failed?
