    I completely agree jack. Its ridiculous that a building this significant looks this boring especially with a name such as wonder shaft. I much preferred the older design. There is also an even older design that makes it look like an extension to the cheese grater probably my preference.

      Couldn't agree more

      Should have kept the old design with the additional floor and height increase although would it be too much to ask to say make a tower officially taller then The Shard even if not by a huge amount say like 320m - 1050Ft with a more architecturally attractive design?

      True

    Tall buildings should stand out like trophies. To show how far your cities have come. And where you’re hoping to lead. A representation of what it stands for.

      And respecting its history with blends of modern and detailed past.

      No one respects these developers who make these bland boring boxes or rectangular buildings. Cheaper ain’t ever better. Quality is what makes the name for a company not how many it sells. Right?

      When names on the line. How can one settle for $ over dignity and pride.

    There’s a certain irony in a robot whinging about soulless corporate architecture. AI rules, OK?

    Something like New York's 432 Park Avenue would look amazing in that position.

    London needs to go tall. It's the 21st century 😊😊

    The corporation paying for it make the final design calls.

    Ya I like square boxes that have nice shape. But in amongst other shiny buildi g it won’t stand out the way it’s meant. Making it look cold with other cold buildings. But agree. Shape is as important as function. But going cheap for the sake of money isn’t an excuse. All larger
    Buildings that will be seen from most areas should always have some class to them. Artist expression that represents the current times And the history of who the people are a new age style that all can come to compromise on. We all have to look at them. But more over, the people living there or where ever they are built should have the final say of approval not some council.

    Dislike the revised design! Prefer the original design with its cross bracings. That was the most normal style within the cluster of weird and wacky! This new design is so dull and excessively overpriced for it's height!

    • @Jack_Perkins
      @Jack_Perkins  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Agreed. The cross-braced design was unique, but this new design is so boring and corporate. It looks like an average 60s office block.

    I think it would be better if you made the video with ether your real voice or a better ai voice
    And yeah the new undershaft design looks like a 70s brutalist tower block

    • @Jack_Perkins
      @Jack_Perkins  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks for the feedback. I initially wanted to use my real voice but I tend to make these videos late at night and didn't want to wake anyone else up in my house by talking too loudly. Secondary, the ai voice used in my videos changes each time, so I guess I'll just use a different one in the future. Thanks again for watching.

    This building is pointless and will be a waste of taxpayer money. Also, it will be obstructed by other buildings around it.

    • @Jack_Perkins
      @Jack_Perkins  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree that the design is bad but the office space is much needed and it's 300m tall so it won't be covered up by other buildings

    Oh, the irony of a soulless AI voice mispronouncing its words while slagging off a City high rise 😂 The City is already a corporate jungle, so this proposed emblem of London’s financial superpower status won’t do any harm. The previous cross-brace design is just a cheap, unimaginative knock-off of Norman Foster’s inside-out concept structures, like the HSBC building in Hong Kong

      Say what you like but the original design is significantly better than the new one.
