Care to guess what the inspiration for that triangle front is?

And my little puppy got 2 down votes ;( aaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwww
Cool looking building.
Two down votes already. Someone must not like rock and roll.
The form was inspired by the guitar. It doesn't mean that he tried to make it look like a guitar. The architect isn't trying to hit you over the head with the thought. It is far more subtle than that.
i don't think anyone will say "look, that is just like a neck of a guitar there.wow!" when he sees this building :-/
Well of course you can't see it JC. You brain is mouldy. hehe
Really? I can't see that at all :\
Still an interesting building though :)
is it? now that would be the last thing that would think of...
Maybe this is more difficult that I thought.
It is the perspective you would see if you looked down the neck of a guitar. Much like looking down railroad tracks.
ok, i know what you mean: this triangle or pyramid is a reference to some R'N'R thing, an album or an artist...? diamond perhaps?
The front of this isn't a pyramid. It doesn't have four surfaces.
I. M. Pei was the architect of the "pyramid" of the Louvre years before this. Still looking for an answer btw.
I. M. Pei was the architect, still trying to guess, googling etc
No but dark side of the moon is warm. It is derived from the building use.
