The Man's a Scultor, Not an Architect

MIT is suing Frank Gehry over the cartoon building caught in mid-collapse-design of the $300M Stata Center. Turns out, it looks far, far prettier than it works - and leaks like a sieve.

I remember a Wired article on the construction a few years back, with all the dubious people who just wanted a building they could work in - aren't weren't sure this was one - painted as silly old nerds who couldn't appreciate beauty.
