Sure it’s a bit played out. We’ve all seen this sort of thing for 10 years now. But I have to disagree with those who say it is not contextual. You look at the surrounding buildings. It is a mixed commercial/residential street. The buildings however are mostly closed at street level and the doors are mere apertures. This project relates very well to that typology – playing off the mostly closed nature and treating the doorway as a true portal. Bravo for mixing the new with the old.

@TJ

sure, budget is always a concern, when isn’t budget a concern? Just because it may have had a tight budget doesn’t excuse it from being poorly executed. I’m getting increasingly tired of mediocre work being excused by the excuse of money. If money is tight be more creative.

Furthermore the excuse that it’s probably more interesting than what was there before is also played out and still just an excuse. Is it better than what was there before? Maybe. Is it good? No.

This is one solution to a problem, there were innumerable other possibilities, many were probably much worse and some much better. Irrespective I have no intention of lauding subpar work just because it met the budget and is, maybe, better than the existing facade.

I guess you are right, the original building was much better. What a waste of time and energy. … Actually, While the design may have some imperfections I am not sure what the designer had to work with. I have worked with tight budgets and rush rush clients that had neither time nor money. Must architecture always be limited to the wealthiest clients. I believe that this project makes a strong contribution to the surrounding site and is a successful adaptation to the building’s existing facade.

random sculptural representation of “hair”
the form does not look aesthetically pleasing nor it connects to the surrounding
the photograph is terrible. they are all from the same angle looking diagonally towards the shop. there is no interior shot towards the facade becuase they know that it looks terrible.
wow. this is sad.

this is so bad. zero indication of having paid any attention to the site. the hair wave is contrived and to add insult to injury is poorly executed.
