Review: Aqua


Chicago
Using the very element that affects the interior layout of a building least, and yet affects the exterior apperance most. Composing balconies to create a texture of waves over a typically bland tower is truly economic and extremely brilliant.

Firmitas 7

Simple international-styled structure, no complaints.


Utilitas 8

Practical Layouts, and very interesting outdoor spaces


Venustas 9

This is where it scores, simply breathtaking. If only they did the balcony thing on the mechanical floors as well, it would have got a 10.


Environmental 7

Nothing much, this building caught my attention not because of any new technology, but a great design idea.
