you been there? What did you experience? What stood out for you? Details? Overall
design?

London’s first ecological tall building and an instantly recognisable
addition to the city’s skyline, 30 St Mary Axe is rooted in a radical
approach - technically, architecturally, socially and spatially.
Generated by a radial plan, its energy-conscious enclosure resolves
walls and roof into a continuous triangulated skin, allowing column-free
floor space, light and views.
