[COM] The Switch - 203 North Terrace | 119m | 35 levels | Student Accom

Do we think it’s a positive that it’s not as yellow as the renders? I always thought it looked really weird in the renders.

I’m also worried about what these black divider sections are going to look like in reality as it’s such an odd combination.

One more question. Is that weird curved Club 199 building getting developed with this too?

Nope, that would be part of this development (if it ever happens): https://www.sensational-adelaide.com/fo ... &start=315

How the fuck did this get approved.

Prime real estate wasted on cheap rubbish, overlooking some of the grandest buildings in this state. Embarrassing.

Ghastly.

This is a crime to the eye.

I think Jay spent his last few days in office walking around with his "approved" stamp. Oh hang on, we've been Liberal for a few years now. In that case, I love it

White buildings matter!

In person, it looks sort of cream and almost textured, as though it's been sandblasted. It's not the worst precast we've seen but it certainly doesn't scream quality, likely even less so across the coming expanse. The brackets for the vertical fins also appear to be a very dull bronze, as opposed the metallic lustre I'd hoped would lift the appearance. But the tower is also a lot narrower than I realised, so even if it does evolve unfavourably, there's hope it might be only a slight blight.

So does a grog bog

First panels featuring the blades were added today. They are a champagne coloured blade, satin in finish with a definite colour change to them. I need to see more of them to have an opinion. The small windows (only one is visible) are highly reflective carbon colour, pity the northern facade won't feature a solid curtain wall of these.

And further renders from Synergy.

Initial impression is that the fins on the Four Seasons Remand Centre look slightly better than expected
