I'm just curious, how to describe this architectural style and its origin?
i loved this open spaces / box style with open spaces and big panoramic views, clean elegant, functional and bright. Wonder how this architectural style is called, looks very European.
(I wouldn't call this European Modernism, per se... looks more of the Brazilian variety, which is rooted in European Modernism but has its differences.)

Yep, Brazil variety. SAOTA architects uses the 'stacked boxes' look a lot.

Either- good enough to get in Dwell magazine but not good enough to remember seeing in Dwell magazine style.
Or- Not so special architecture that any designer would still love to live in because it beats the crappy houses that we can afford.

Just another form of Modernism, popularized by Rem's Villa dall'Ava. Other than Ken Yeang's green skyscrapers, everything else seem in the s.e.a. region seem to be modernist...nothing spectacular.

Foster + Partners I believe? I was talking about projects completed not by foreign architects. It's meh at best.
