I remember when I was a student of architecture always being told that my designs should demonstrate architectural good manners. That is to say be in scale with the surroundings, create a sense of place and reflect a human scale. It seems to be a lesson that has been forgotten in this country. Too many modern buildings in the UK appear to want to sweep away our cities and show no manners at all. This tower is out of scale. Shows no deference to its location and certainly doesn't create a sense of place.
