My “dear” friend. I realy find it a cool building. And the entire form represent the BMW icon. And why do you want BMW to sell it? You want to buy it?

First of all who gave you right to insult somebody????We are here to make our opinions and statements about nowadays architecture practise. Once you evolve you will realise that estetics and sensationalism are the last criteria that architecture should be judged by!!!!!!!!!!!Have a nice day

Arcitecture is not only about drawing something.
Whether one likes this architecture or not, i fell one has to be impressed by all that is implied with this kind of project:
-how to develop this kind of concept
-how you convince the client
-the other professionnals and everyone who is implicated in the project
-how you manage to detail regarding it’s feasability to really make this thing builded by contractors
-how to make survive the building against the ever downgrading effect af the construction phase
-and how to manage to align an tremendous amounts quantity of right decisions affecting the overall result

I only can be mesmerized towards these kind of projects being realized knowing that it would be unthinkable building these kind of projects where I live.

Gillio you obviously fall into the imbecile category.
Did you not see the aerial photo and for that matter the site plan and how it relates to the corner. This is Munich, the home of BMW, look at their other buildings.
In fact BMW is across the road where there are acres of industrial buildings. Type in BMW Welt, Munich, Germany in to Google Maps/satellite and you’ll see context.

Catch a wake up.

I honestly see no contextualization on the building, looks as if a UFO landed there… Boaring… Anyone with knowledge on Revit or Vector can draw that with little studing… Architecture its not Esculpture, I agree with Balkan, Too much many spent and not much effect produced, it just looks like a huge miscontroled mess
