And CC, I have to second your comments about the MIA. Any architect building something in the Gulf that requires a 300m walk from the uncovered carpark to reach the front door is a bit out of touch, more concerned about aesthetics and lines than practical considerations.

The interior is amazing, even if it is almost a xerox copy of the central atrium areas of the Louvre.

As for Fanar, I just really wish someone would clean it. The seaside of the spiral is one color and the landside another, which makes the place look a little unloved to me. I do love the spiral though.
