...building, as the new addition is now called, what other word will do? At twilight, when their interior lights come on, the lenses have a milky refulgence, radiating gently against the sky. In daylight, when the glass loses that ectoplasmic glow, there are a few dead zones along the exterior, stretches that have the featureless feel of shed walls. But to keep the eye occupied, Holl plays with the forms and arrangement of the five lenses, bending and dipping them as the hilly site also bends and dips.

Not a word you typically get to use when describing a building; but Future Systems doesn't make typical buildings. And its mostly windowless exterior is covered by 15,000 anodized aluminum disks packed in rows against a field of stucco painted "Yves Klein blue," the dark blue patented by the French artist. Depending on how you think about it, those disks can look like sequins or coins. Either way, for a department store, that...
