Murphy's earlier work was great, but that tower as a piece of architecture was not good at all. If you want to build high, you have to use the scale right, and unfortunately Murphy can not go away from domestic scale succesfully. If Edinburgh is to build high it has to be with quality, and the project at Haymarket or the lovely Edinburgh Waterfront (aka Platinum Point) does not do it well enough. Murphy is a great architect if he sticks to Scarpa and DCA. But is great to see Ed Hollis having a column that is certainly brilliant as he is a fantastic writer, and architect.
