Frank Gehry is famous for his offbeat architectural designs like the enormous glass sails of the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris and the titanium fish scales of the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao. His latest building, the first in Australia, is as radical - so much so that critics have likened it to a crumpled brown paper bag.

    It's definitely a new idea but... I just don't think I prefer that crumpled paper bag style.

              this has inspired me... One day I shall make a building shaped as a cookie called the "CookieMunch" where it is a hotel and at the bottom floor there is the worlds best cookie shop. GENIUS AM I RIGHT??🍪🍪🍪

                It looks like they enlarged a paper brown paper bag and stuck windows on it. It looks photo-shopped.

                    1. Mr. Gehry's latest building is being compared to a crumpled paper bag. The structure was being used for business school. 2. laying the bricks was so difficult because all the bricks had to be custom and even. Master bricklayer Peter Favetti was pulled out of retirement to build this building. There were many challenges faced in order to finish this building including the bricks took 5 times longer than normal brick laying and connecting those bricks to the infrastructure was a whole other challenge. 3. great features of this building include crisp wood-paneled oval classrooms encourage collaboration, while the 120-seat style theater is designed to enable students to work together in small groups. The stairs and other central areas have been strategically placed so that students and staff from different disciplines cross paths, fostering interactivity. The iconic building was also awarded a 5-Star Green rating thanks to features like sensor controlled air conditioning systems that turns off and on automatically. In addition, innovative indoor lighting which casts a beam outside, eliminates the need for most exterior lights.
