    No, that’s a blatant rip-off of master Peter Zumthor; only he is the originator and this is pathetic plagiarism. Sometimes i’m in awe that the judges even consider this kind of practice, and dont sanction the non imaginative talentless cffices.

      So what? does he have some kind of patent on the composition of bricks? Looks like a decent project to me.
