Each time I'm designing elevations I find myself returning to images of this building. The variety, detail and depth achieved in this project is incredible. Not to mention its respectful contextual integration between several existing heritage buildings.

Brilliant.

I think I have to work for these guys, they have some lessons to teach me.
