More interesting precast panels

It can be done at a very similar cost. Somehow they used the exact same colours as DTK, but made it look a little nicer in my opinion.  It doesn't look good, but I also don't find it offensive to my eyes like the DTK podium.

I know most already agree, but as a future note for those speaking to developers in the industry:

Difference in quality and design is very noticeable already.
2 CIP buildings vs 2 Total Precast Buildings.
Can see how podiums and precast are limited by to spans/panel sizes/material finish.
Hoping someone has a better folder of comparisons...
