You will find the Morphopedia entry at https://www.morphosis.com/architecture/12/. We built this BIM from scratch, as part of a functionality test model for BricsCAD BIM development. It’s a striking design with some interesting geometry, and we learned a lot through modeling it. No false advertising intended, and certainly no claim was ever made as to our participation in the original design. -Don

I cannot find the reference building on their website (perhaps I’m a poor looker…)

If the building is real and was designed using “software x” then another company selling “software y” should work hard to make sure the model in the reference imagery is a clear deviation.

The project was used to show how BricsCAD BIM could be utilized on a representative project, such as this one.

That seems a bit like false advertising…
