Wright’s point of view: To become a landmark, a building must rely on simple and unique shapes. To judge a landmark, we only need to use a few strokes to describe its location. This is a landmark. When they designed the Burj Al Arab hotel project, "the average age was 32 years old, and there was no gray hair." They had no relevant experience in high-rise buildings, and had never designed buildings with more than 15 floors.
