As much as I appreciate the novel height and some of the design elements of this building, boy is that a depressing picture. Every single building or manmade structure -- Depresso Grey. A literal Void of Imagination.

What a missed opportunity in a massive, three-tower development to have some (read: ANY) saturation, richness, or interplay of colour.

When did we lose inspiration as a society?

Actually, though I agree with you in spirit about lack of colour in our towers, I do see a lot of colour here - it's just that certain clinical green as seen in those old-fashioned soap dispensers you'd find in public washrooms. There.... feel better?
