Excellent questions, conveying the difference between architectural criticism and journalistic reporting.

Flat roofs are not beautiful to behold, to look out at or down on. Usually they are marred with plumbing vent stacks and become fiercely hot in the summer, limiting use for any outdoor purpose.

This project is not "green" architecture, but slick architectural styling. The style is rather nifty, however--but that's a matter of taste, and taste changes with fashion.
