Mad_Cyril It looks like a very cheap piece of 70s architecture. At £340m, it has fell short of my expectations. Note: I have no problems with minimal, brutalist stuff for the most part.

Shouldn’t an ‘infrastructure hub’ prioritise functionality over aesthetics?

Is getting in and out not more important than exterior curvature?

Is 340m excessive because it doesn’t like a huge pair of tits?

Is it acceptable to spent 340m on a huge pair of tits?

So many questions!

Amps

Mad_Cyril You not like the shape?

Needs bigger tits.

There’s a political slogan in there for Amps, should he want it:

’Less infrastructure hub, more Pornhub!"

It should, and probably does, but £340m should leave you some budget for the nicer things in life.

Another take might be that good design / taste isn’t necessarily expensive.

Can you give examples of the type of infrastructure hub you’d expect for 340m?

Researching modern infrastructure architecture and it’s associated costs? What a lovely way to spend my spare time!

Not exactly news, but just discovered that Coldcut (of ‘Autumn Leaves’ and ‘Journeys By DJ’ fame), produced this absolute cheese-fest in 1988. Bizarre.

So they made that, and then made Yazz ‘The Only Way Is Up’ just a year later. Again, bizarre.

Standard stuff init: do the commercial gear to pay the bills, do the art on your own time. Orbit with Madonna etc.
