I don’t think I am by nature a vulgar person, but whenever I see an image of that building, the expression "butt plug" always comes to mind.

It is a fantastic building that truly stands out in London’s skyline. Not a huge fan of Norman Foster myself but this building is really cool. The thing that bothers me about it most is its height. It is so much lager than its surrounding context that it seems out of scale though as I recall there was a building height mandate for a long period of time where buildings couldn’t be taller than St Pauls I think so that does explain a lot.

I like it but my favourite building in the city is the Lloyds Building, I love it.

Just read about the history of that site in "Architecture And Violence" last night. I’m in my 5th year of study now. Did you "get into architecture"? What’s your story?
