Its because of dumb shit like this and the buffoons that eat it by the spoonful that the profession is such a joke and we get paid very little money.

Don't be such a simpleton bro.

some of these kinds of projects were built even into the 90's in Japan.  Hiroshi Hara's umeda sky building in osaka that connects two towers with yona-esque sky slabs was the last gasp i think.  somehow it doesn't work to have huge roofs hanging overhead.  it's amazing in a way and compelling at times, yet fails to grant the freedom those guys were all hoping for. 

the edo-tokyo museum by kiyonori kikutake is amazing example too but also soul-killing to walk through

maybe it is that large spaces on the ground feel more about totalitarian intentions and inevitably exert control - even in a benign place like tokyo.  The effect is not welcoming, regardless. 

yona's drawings are brilliant though.  they feel very free.  that no one has been able to take it much further is perhaps because it is better that it not be realized, and we have decided to look elsewhere.  ?
