  I think it is a fun building which adds variety to the City. It is controversial, but I think it improves the area more than the previous neo-Gothic building. The 'prow' of the building is it's best part, bold yet not agressive, with charming naval design quirks, but I found the interior courtyard quite unfriendly, it's triangular shape making it feel too enclosed and the bright colours (blue wall tiles and pink windows etc) obviously intented to lighten the mood of the area, were just threatening.Still, it's a postmodernist masterpiece and one of James Stirling's most distinguished buildings.

  fantastic incarnation of postmodernism in architecture. Stirling was a genius in playing with eclecticism.

  Unedible London architectural nightmare. Even in the so-called "underdeveloped" countries we still have enough criteria not to allow such horrors standing in the middle of the city centre.

  It looks like a hideous cake. Ridiculous piece of architecture that is so out of keeping with its surroundings.

  Interesting use of lines, curves, symmetry and perspective.This building has character and as it is clearly emotive should be considered art.

  There is no any relation to the former building. This is just a stupid desire of a tasteless nouveau riche to be remembered.There was just the only ensemble in the City and there is no one today.Why do they think it is modern? It's a day before yesterday.

  Good modern interpreation of the previous Mappin and Webb building on this site.
