I love it. It's right next door to a museum aboard an actual ship from 1901, the Discovery. Old and new contrasted against each other

It's am impressive waste of space for an exhibition space too, so much area taken up for so little usable interior. I do like it though

It does seem to inspire a somewhat "marmite" reaction in people.

I like it much better than all those dull boxes that are being shitted built these days.

Still never been up to Dundee to check it out, but heard good things about it. I love the design of the building, very cool.

Great, so it'll be affordable to maintain and easy to extend or repurpose as the museum's requirements change over time? Right? Right?...
