Behold London’s latest shwingin’ skyscraper, the proposed “Tulip” designed by starchitect Norman Foster as a companion for the already-built “Gherkin” and “The Shard.” London has decided to make itself a freak show city in these waning days of techno-industrial narcissmo. Obviously, the Tulip’s slender stem does not allow for much office or apartment programming. It’s just a sight-seeing attraction. But have a good look at the scene rendered below for just how unappetizing the experience might be. (Uccchhh….) This is further evidence that empires on-the-ropes put up their most outlandish monuments just before they crash.
A salute to Derek Marcovic for the nomination.

I have my doubts that it will ever get built.
Haha,
A bit phallic ehhh??
Enough of this subtle suggestive references!
Lets go full overt porn, leave nothing to the imagination OK?
Vines growing up the shaft to satisfy the greener spaces folks, and pink-reddish glans, oops! I mean Glass.
Using the expression, That Being Said, Wrap your imagination around this delightful tourist attraction. What the hell. . . anything goes in the City of London?
Oh. . .lateStarter, I think you’re spot on. . .
Its a sad state of affairs when architecture is reduced to a gimmic to gain public approval.
Wrapping complex structures up in familiar disguises has to be an all time low.
Common or garden objects blown up to massive scale, for giggles, is a childish endeavour.
At a slight step up, it may appeal to classic Brit humour, that these objet d’art look like they could go ‘up ya jacksie’ [perhaps not The Shard, but you never know].
It could take off.
With a booster mounted (ahem) on either side, it would be SpaceXXX.
tiptoe to the Tulip.
Beautiful building, but I do question the sanity of cramming ever more accommodation/office space into relatively small footprints 7dollaressay.com reviews. This just brings ever more people into the already creaking transport system in London.
Thank you for the write this review.
