Was thinking the same thing Pikey. 2000m over 17 levels is just over 100m per level - thats half my house! Very, very cool though, dont think its been done in Australia before. Certainly a change from all the boxes.

The building has a street frontage of just 9.19m!
(it has a total floor area of 3500sqm2)

Certainly draws your attention! Looks a little top heavy to me however.
Capitalised well on a small allotment area restriction.Appears like the main part of the CBD is stretching down south!

Great looking design. I don't think Adelaide has any significantly sized curved building yet.
It's not as narrow as the failed Pinnacle proposal. Although unlike Pinnacle, this will actually get natural light!

Wow impressive stuff. Much better than I was expecting.
It would be great if it went ahead and blocked out SGIC and Santos from the eastern view of the city as they do nothing for our skyline except Santos adding terrible industrial style cooling towers that stand out terribly from the east.
Bring on more curved glass facades in Adelaide too, we lack substantial curved glass buildings which catch great sunlight effects and add interest to a skyline.

nice design. Cant wait to see the full-res renders as I dont think these ones are doing it justice

Oh I say - the curve is rather smashing indeed. Dare I hope that the eastern wall of glass is actually golden?

im intrigued by this!
really hope it gets built, not only for the unique design, but for the monstrosity it will hide from the east.

ooh yes, more curved glass buildings...developments like this one plus the one across from the state library and 20-22 Currie st will actually bring this city into the 21st Century

Thanks Will.
I don't like it to be honest. Look ridiculous. I'm all for curved facades but this building will look terrible from northern, southern and western aspects.

Who can even see this one getting built?, considering companies are after big floor plates
I would hate to work in it

hate to be a pessimist, but I very much doubt this would get built in its current form .. try an eight storey building then you are in the ball park. Waste of time!

yeah it looks alright, but i hate to see developers destroy old buildings for the sake of it. At least keep the facade
