I remember watching a video about a new funny shaped building in my city and they were interviewing the structural engineer. He said "There were only two 90 degree angles in the entire design and when we mentioned that to the architect he changed them straight away."
That's awful... "changed them right away" was right there.
There’s a building like this by MIT in Boston. It famously sucks to live in.
It turns out by making the surface area of the exterior extremely high compared to the internal volume, you massively increase the odds of a water leakage problem. The building may as well have no roof.
It also attracts birds, bats, and bees to nest in all the little nooks and crannies so it looks like shit now with bird spikes and metal mesh crammed into all the spots that were intended to be the places your eye is drawn to in the original design.
Also increases the external surface area and will require more energy to heat and/or cool.
Once the tradespeople are done, they're done. But the inhabitants will be struggling to arrange their furniture indefinitely.
This is why architects need to be on a leash at all times.
Is there like a sign up sheet or?
Wanted to be an artist but could only draw squares
