This design is finely executed to achieve multiple functions: solar shades, solar energy harvesting, public library, wind shield, etc. The form follows the function very well, but could be improved aesthetically by keep developing the material palate. More presentations of interior light distribution is needed to describe how it will illuminate people both physically and mentally.
