    Reminds me of my kids slinky she messed up. That building will never be the same after the giant toddler played with it…

      I wish it talked more about the architecture. Im curious if the twist helps with wind.

        I know enough about aerodynamics to speak generally about typical designs. But, this isn’t a typical design. Insight needs an aero engineer with some experience.

        I think the architecture is really cool because it looks like a twist at first glance, but isn’t.

            It’s a cut into the exterior that creates an illusion, leaving the core intact. If it was anything different then it’d not be standing.

              I’d say the corners are twisted but the middle part isn’t

                Wow. I’ve never before seen a comment history so devoid of content and with so little care for presentation that it was reasonable to no longer want to see their posts.
