The B1M Could you make a video on the recent and near-future changes of the London skyline? 22 Bishopsgate, 1 Undershaft, the Vase etc?
I would visit London again, for many reasons, but going up inside this building would make me rush the trip that much sooner.
The views would certainly be awesome. But the overall design looks like it’s made for a cheap sci-fi movie.
Konrad My
pretty much sums up foster & partners.
The asparagus more like.
But not slimy or green
The dildo more like even more
I would love to know what The B1M's opinion is. I like the concept but this is a bit too phallic for my liking.
The consensus in our office: it's impressive and eye-catching... but we love London and are kind of hoping it doesn't get built!
And the Gherkin isnt?
don't build a giant knob on the skyline please
Very Spoopy It was just approved, so it will happen xD
Very Spoopy Would be a very British thing to do.
😂
@@Fubuki43 Nope, it's been rejected now
JΛMΛ Thank god xD
"tulip" wasn't the first thing that came to my mind.
Lolllll
That's not a tulip...it's a f***ing joke.
dickmodel 3D
Of course it's not a tulip, it's a building
The Rotating Genital Warts Tower
Not as catchy though is it?
I was gonna say, if that building doesn't look like some kind of a dick.. and you're right those are the rotating HSV infections lol
This is probably one of the ugliest structures I've ever seen
probably why it's been rejected and will never be real lol
It's very ugly and looks like many other things besides a tulip also don't they already have the London eye for scenic views why make something else that provides "views"?
because the hyper-capitalist entitled scum that build these things have to somehow justify it to the general public. and the b1m no doubt loves it.
tulip? everyone knows exactly what this really resembles. hence the coming nickname.
The needle dick
I hope it’s rejected it’s ridiculous ugly not needed
I’m in Los Angeles and is still December 2nd and the video was uploaded on December 3rd so that means I’m watching this video from the future
Hahaha! That might be our favourite comment ever.
Oh yea
A phallus in its natural state. No tulip.....
Is this for real?
The planning application has been submitted to the City of London.
I just discovered the b1m has a second channel and I'm so happy
It looks strange
It looks more like asparagus to me.
Gurkin two electric boogaloo
They are ruining London with these ugly buildings
Vile, vile, vile.
Why didn't you talk about it. It's placement and base shape are fascinating, looks like they're trying to get use out of the tiny corner of empty land beside that one existing building. I bet that will become a trend over the next few years, re purposing tiny pieces of land into weirdly shaped sky scrapers.
hence the pencil shaped craze in nyc
Wow.. Hope you make a detailed video on this
We will! Part of a broader piece on the future on some of the world's leading cities.
The B1M wow great ❤
Now thats what I call an eyesore
How about build a Pentagon shape skyscraper 360 meters 1,181ft standing alone and not have them clustered with other tall buildings? And a view on the roof top?
Just when I thought the Gherkin was as phallic as a building could look.
I like the creativity, but I worry about the economics. It looks like the building requires customers who are willing to pay a high premium. High-end whims are difficult to predict years in advance, but that building willl take many years to pay for itself. I'm not saying it will fail, only that I would pay very close attention to their risk management plans. Hopefully the bold design comes with a bold plan to reduce construction and maintenance costs by utilizing new technologies.
I wouldn't be surprised if this would actually be built. So distopian! Exactly what London seems to be going for
my opinion: ugly
Disturbingly awful.
London is filled with some of the weirdest-looking buildings I've ever seen..
Why concrete? If they made it out of glass this should be fine but concrete.All of London's greatest towers are made from glass!
If you’re already that high, why would you need to be spinning up and down in the same plane? Those horrible capsules would have more sense if they’d give you 360 degree views
As someone with a mild fear of heights, I truly hate modern architects, and I'm not going there.
pussy
There's one thing our country lacks, and that is skyscrapers. Let's fucking do it!
I dont know how I already know about this lol did you guys post it in a video before? :)
Im gay and id totally ride tgat
Such a shame what they did to Old London 😢
@Tin foil Hat man It had a distinct look and was a major hub of culture. Destroying this world heritage by building new styles with no continuity or regard for history is in my books a major crime
@@Chombiee Oh bugger off. It's about time we caught up with the rest of the world and started to modernise our great country. We need more beautiful buildings like this.
Dunny2k NO
@@riidge4177 YES
Please make a video on the big bend, New York. Thanks.
That building looks like a sex toy, I’m sorry 😂
Yet another entirely undesirable, useless, ugly building to further ruin the beautiful landscape of London.
It'll look absolutely beautiful in real life, the CGI cheapens how it looks I think.
Variation it can’t all be the same architecture
First
Boom!
Yeah I still don't like it. It's just ugly and so unecessarily close to the Gherkin
the Q-tip?
The Shard is hideous. The Gherkin is ugly. The Walkie Talkie is hideous. The O2 arena is hideous. What are they thinking over there?
Why are you being so narrow minded?
@@FaDeNitroz I dunno.
Cool I Love It !
Looks like a postmodernist building and that says a lot...
London? Looks like it might be more suited to one of the more recent modern Asian or S/E Asian skylines. Or, even Dubai?
Hideous.
I like it
A
Ah the humble tulip.. Cause of the first ever stock market bubble and crash
I guess if you've really got to stick it to the Dutch again this *is* a way
Hammond Druthers at it again.
The Gran Tula The testable
Travesty, but next to the Gherkin it might be an improvement
gherkin isn't so bad, but the walkie talkie is an abomination.
haha bellend
Looks hideous
I love this building! I love when architecture is different looking and tries something new which is probably why i dislike the new World Trade Center building in New York so much. It’s just so boring and unimaginative
I love this design but I just don't understand why are people are opposing this building i think it looks beautiful or even more in real life
London has become infamous for it's collection of ridiculous and inharmonious towers. The only positive attribute of this proposed whale-phallus is that it reduces the Gherkin's aesthetic impact. When did the English become so reliably vulgar?
piss off
Yuk!
Tulip Tower looks beautiful I love it
