I can see the inspiration and appreciate all the work that went into this build, but I was disappointed by the execution. One of the things that makes Frank Ghery's buildings impressive is the high quality fit of all the parts. It is possible to make all the wall prims fit much better then they do at the edges and ends by using taper and skew. The jagged edges that are left by leaving all the ends perpendicular is leaves one with an impression of sloppiness, quite unlike Ghery's work.
