I believe they got it right – steel and glass skyscrapers are not really high street type of architecture

It doesn’t matter how it looks like. It has no history. No heritage.

This is such architectural vomit – not even necessarily in a bad way. I think both buildings look good but the choice to combine certain styles is definitely different.
Super disparate styles, materials, and shapes.
Take the top image – left side starts with a distinctly french chateau look with a square garden house, buttresses, and prominent window face, then immediately to the right of that detailed face is a flat facade straight out of industrial era Britain. Extremely strange and inexplicable tilted buttress here that looks cool, almost like a flash of Gehry working in brick. Move a little further right and all of the sudden we’re in a lighthouse, right more, back to british industrial. Right more and suddenly we’re in a grain silo/ww2 bunker
the bottom is like you took one house from every smaller town in italy and lumped them together
Maybe that was the goal as an R&D department – lots of different styles and ideas to draw inspiration from

Not much R&D happening there though.. they just steal code from other vendors and sell it as their own products

More like dictatorship with Euro-fetishism.

They have also a small train looking like a swiss mountain railway
So their „R&D“ building is literally a plagiarized copy?

huawei’s r&d facility in china is basically where the tech magic happens it’s like the brains behind all those gadgets and innovations and of course it’s in china where they’re pushing boundaries on the regular

I have never understood why China is so obsessed to build like in Europe when their buildings, at least for me European, are pretty also. Maybe because I’m tired of watching European buildings and find fascinating another architecture
