New Patrons

Brown University, Ivy League school and RISD neighbor, is working on a new fine arts building just down the road from my office. When I go out for lunch I walk past it. Until recently, it has not looked like much. Now it is really beginning to take on some character. 

I am not sure whether to like it or not. Interesting maybe, but will it look dated in a couple of decades? I'm not sure there is any timelessness to this design. Only the years will tell.
