the klee [architecture friday]
I'm late again. I know. I was sick yesterday. I didn't even go to work. But now I've got a burst of energy and I'm going to talk about the Klee.
Things I like about it:
- It has it's own website.
- The look of the big metal box on the low-rise side.
big metal box
Other than that, it really looks rather stark and utilitarian. Their web page says the low-rise side has big windows, but it doesn't look like it to me. Maybe all that aluminum is messing with my perspective, but I can't help but think of those fortress schools that they build in the 90s. You know, the ones with one arrow slit window per floor.
The high-rise side is just generic.
holiday inn?
I kind of think I don't like it, overall, even though I really like certain elements. But, it could be that I just don't like the logo, and I'm appling that to the whole building. Seriously, it looks like some wannabe high end food product.
mmm, tuscan style soy mocca latte.
oops. I mean condos.
Maybe I'm shallow. I don't know. But I just can't get behind a logo like that.
