Ian Cruz, have you were walked between two glass gladded building in the City? It just make you feel awful, like a public figure, everyone is looking at you from all angles in the mirrors, then the path just looks synthetic even if it has trees, everything with multiple shadows or a mix up, if buildings are build with glass and the glass is left bear, I tell you, that city is hard to live and work in. I have not been in Dar, does TPA border the beach? like is it the last building to the coastline? Because sometime, it is always beautiful when a glass house is the last to the shore.
like this, but do you realise that even this, where there is human traffic, glass is shielded?
In some cases people use less reflective glasses and they do them cascadingly in a way, the reflection is diffused, eg Burj Khalifa
Basic i am trying to say, the African tropics are not ideal for glass gladding, just to some extend, the glass gladding does it well in the polar regions or outside the tropics, this where the sun is not as scorching as ours, imagine the heat in Mombasa then add the reflections from towers!!! Sweat!! But in Chicago, Berlin, Beijing even South Africa can have full glass towers but not Kenya, or Uganda, or Tanzania!!
So TPA gladding, out of place completely
Come to Malindi where Billionaires Resort is Grass Thatched
Because of temperatures!!!
