Very blue, very spandrel-ly.
If the blue tone were more random in placement and the glass more reflective than it would look so much better. The ill-fated Harmon Hotel in Las Vegas by Norman Foster comes to mind:

Ill-fated to the point where it is about to be torn down… before an earthquake topples it. Oops. (Not Foster's fault apparently.)

At least they didn't build it to its planned height of 49 floors, and instead only built 28 floors that they now have to take down one by one.

I was just standing in front of The Harmon a couple months ago, trying to explain to those around me what an engineering failure the thing is. Amazing how they plastered ads all over it like One Times Square
