The website is up. This is an exciting project. Just realised there was no thread here.

The design is different, note the change in the latern shape, no longer curved at the bottom. Much better because before it looked like a giant fingernail.

The video is awesome, nice and epic.

You're right, and it's towers like Trilogy and Vision that's attracting others to Brisbane. It's like there's a race to build Brisbane's most iconic tower! Hopefully we'll get some big corporate names relocating their HQs here. There's just so much potential.

Im not a fan. It's such a massive structure, it's even bigger than Aurora, not only in height. Brisbane is going to get the badge of the big cluncky city, or somthing like that. very few detailed designed towers, not that these are bad to live in, I just believe we could have a much sleaker, far more well defined built environment if there was a little more focus on detailed designed of these towers. the DA for this tower makes it look terrible, far too over scaled. I have a feeling Vision will be a far greater building.... maybe it's suposed to be.

But alas these building have to provide a good return for their investors so in most cases they big 'as big as humanly possible' over apropriate design.
