I disagree. I think it looks horrendous there and really highlights the different colour tones of the contexts used which I don’t think is intentional.

231 Waymouth St. Dividing opinion and splitting personalities since 2017.

I feel like this building can only work in the right context. With modern development around it, the contrast could be cute. But as it stands...

I actually like the concrete look but I wonder how many would come around if it were painted white?

World War Three will be caused by this building.

Waymouth was done on the CHEAP. Building looks terrible! If was built by me, would have WON architecture awards. Bad deal for Adelaide. Sad!

During the last couple of weeks a large mobile cane installed the window panels in the fold (of the l shape ), where the tower of the crane had been. These panels could not be installed until the tower crane was removed. picture from Franklin St.

How did people get away with designing this? Surely it will be painted. Hopefully with invisibility paint.

I don't mind the design, something you would see in Tokyo, but agreed perhaps a little out of place in our Skyline.

It's not only the tone of the different sections but the actual surface finish is highly inconsistent - some smooth, some speckled. I keep thinking of pieces of toast with alternating smooth and crunchy peanut butter...

Probably the worst building in the history of existence.
