I like the scale of it but overall I think it is meh at best. Take the moody evening lighting away and you've got a simple box imo.

I think lighting is often under-valued though. Especially in edmonton when we can have such long nights in the winter. Lighting can take a building from decent to classy. I love a well lit building :)
