The developers expect us to be able to read that tiny signage from ground level? You got to be kidding me...

 Its not that it looks cheap, it's just such an uninspired design.

Its best viewing angle...from a great distance :lol:
There is something to be said for the distance comment. The design and scale of elements of the building means that it looks larger than it actually is since there's nothing alongside it to act as reference.

Ffs.... who renamed the thread title to ‘The Switch’ ???

The name of the building is ‘Adelaide Central’.

‘The switch’ is the name of the company.
