Interesting topics and discussion. It resonates with some of Thomas Heatherwick's manifesto "Humanize" so not sure if either of you have been influenced/inspired by his studio's practice. As for favorite building, that a tough one as I concur with architecture centering on emotion so it like picking you favorite song or book. But if I had to pick on at this moment I would choice another Piano masterpiece, the Jean-Marie Tjibaou Cultural Centre in New Caledonia.

Haven't read Humanize. I think heatherwick's work is only interesting because it's atypical. My personal (david) take is his work feels like that of a 2nd yr undergrad architecture student. it lacks finesse. That said, in the grand scheme of all buildings, it's impressive! The caledonia project is a great one. Haven't seen it in person tho... maybe some day.
