While the design industry may not pay as much heed to star architects – or starchitects – as it once did, on a consumer level, they clearly still pack a punch.
This is exemplified by the sale of an apartment in the Frank Gehry-designed Opus Building in Hong Kong which, according to William Lau of Midland Realty, reached a record-breaking sale price of nearly $60 million due to its ‘unique’ architectural design.

Yawn. Yet another $60 million apartment, with the clichéd petrified-tree-stump cocktail tables (you know it's high-zoot real estate because they're "cocktail tables" instead of "coffee tables").
It was clever of the developer to place that grouping of lesser towers (see balcony photo) where they would block the worst of the downtown glare. . .
