524 Pacific Highway, St Leonards – PTW Architects

PTW is an Australian architecture firm from Sydney who designs cool and interesting buildings all over the world. One of the buildings that interested me the most is skyscraper/tower located at 524 Pacific Highway, St Leonards. The tall and lengthy building gives a breath-taking view from the outside of the entrance and even at the top levels having an amazing view of the city. Its urban design and structure reminds me of buildings in the modern-day future. I also think it is interesting how the building is located at a popular corner in town which attracts the attention to all who walks by. It is interesting how the stairs in front of the entrance uniquely conform/adjust to the location’s steepness as well. The negative aspect to the building is the lack of landscape as it is only a building covered and surround with cement and glass. This building can also give a representation of rural areas declining and city life taking over with it being in such enclosed area. Overall, the building I think the building is very interesting and uniquely designed which makes it stand out in both positive and negative ways.
