Its a gimmick.

Design a building which logicaly looks as if it will fall down.....get attention for it.

Its not real Architecture in my opinion.....sorry.

Tell us what you think Tom. It's better than our infamouse Weissman Art Museum.

I just googled your Weismann and I think I'll have to come up and check it out one of these days. I only wish I had a chance to design a building with the type of budget that he obviously had there.
