I must warn you, I am usually accepting of things I don’t understand, yet where Gehry is concerned I am consistently disappointed and even angered, which is reflected in my tone, here. I see red when I see Gehry’s "architecture".<\/p>\n

I’m PO’d that there is NO mention of high performance, green, sustainability or LEED. Of course, I don’t think this architect cares at all about health and well-being of users or builders, the budget or the planet.<\/p>\n

I am really awed at how inappropriate and ugly this is – it represents bio-diversity? Its metal and concrete and glass. It is NOT biodiverse in form or function and not even accommodating yet alone using the local skills in the industry. Once again, Gehry’s ego on parade.<\/p>\n
