Number one: Create a problem( build an asymetrical high-rise in a known earthquake zone Beijing);Number two: And solve a problem( hired a world's best engineer to figure out how to build a tall bldg. taller than Wright's Imperial Hotel many many times and cost 10 billion dollars to build with tons and tons of steel) And then do admittedly what Wright did- worried about the earthquate news until the news of the building was undamaged in september 1923! But this is no Wright!!!!-dancewu(dot)net

Koolhaas is a big gambler! Wasting Billions of chinese money to gamble in the next major earthquake! I think the Japanese were smarter when they hired Wright to design a symetrical Chinese style THREE STORY building in Tokyo, and did not collapse in the earthquake in September,1923 !---dancewu(dot)net

Min.material with a symetrical design is the answer to a tall building in earthquake zone Beijing! this stupid architect has wasted Billions u.s. dallars for this structure that will collapse in the next major earthquake, based on my experienced licensed architect's professional opinion! If wright was as careless as Koolhaas- put an asymetrical hotel in Tokyo, He would not has been a genius for long! Because Imperial Hotel would have collapsed, and his career would have ended!-dancewu(dot)net

"Maximum Material Minimum Solution" doesn't sound good.
