It's a discussion forum. We don't get to call the shots on the colours but we're entitled to discuss them.

The black looks like the endless Terracon business park buildings.

Overall the building looks nice, yes. I don't like the black. So? (firing line time)We're on an internet forum bantering about everything that happens in the City. By your logic, about the money, we might as well shut the forum down.

Walking by yesterday, I noticed that the mullion caps actually stick out from the building which gives the surface a little bit more definition than they would if they were flush with the panels. My estimate is that they protrude about 6" from the wall. I wouldn't really call them fins, but I'd say they're more of a rib. Mmmmmnnnn........ribs.

when i catch the re-surfaced part of the building out of the corner of my eye now I gotta take a double take as the substantial change still surprises me! it looks pretty sleek I have to say.

Yeah they stick out. Didn't one of you say that Ray Wan is behind this? I guess he couldn't make a building without some kind of fin.

Please just start building the fracking thing so we can all believe it. SkyCity too.
Thank you.

Check out the Artis Reit building in this view. What a nice contrast from before.

Wow! That recladding does a huge difference. I do hope, however, that they never touch the MTS building.
