I like it. I'm for anything that adds some variety to the stale architecture of the last several decades. I'm not certain whether Howard Roark would design anything like it though.

'Bet it'd be right up his draftsman table - but he probably wouldn't be able to get it built - too many hangers on who would want their stamp on it for vicarious acclaim.

but seriously, other than looking like it's ready for takeoff - I rather like it, particularly since the design has practical function, not just for being different.

(I think maybe Wright would've liked it too - no bowing to conventional namby pamby design. Definitely outside the box.)
