View of the student residences designed by Ian Simpson Architects, currently nearing completion.

I find these buildings absolutely remarkable, I have never seen anything quite like them before. The angular profile plays tricks with perspective and is very eye catching. The varied use of material on each of the three towers is also very pleasing to the eye. To improve the image, I spent some time removing lamp posts at the bottom edge of the picture.
