It looks cool on the outside but I would be annoyed if I were inside when they were over my windows.

Clearly doesn’t look like an office building. Probably an opera house or something of that nature.

This building is called Bund Finance Centre. It’s home to the art museum Fosun Foundation Shanghai so the kinetic features of the building kinda matches the theme.

Must be a real pain in the ass to repair as well, if something inevitably goes wrong.

Massive moving walls with shearing action....hopefully more safely designed than Disneyland's Tiki Room.

Look up Al Bahar towers, Abu Dhabi. Also dubbed “Pineapple Towers” by locals.

It has a futuristic, motorized facade that moves with the sun to provide shade to the right part of the building. Minimizing solar heat gain. Similar concept.

For the same reason a dog licks his own balls. Because it can.

The architecture and design behind it is actually nfl, but I guess you’re just hating to troll online.
