Did you catch Midtown Center's recent feature in The Washington Post? The article highlights how a few new D.C. buildings are breaking away from what architects call the “big dumb box” design. Designed by SHoP Architects, Midtown Center’s two mid-rise towers are connected by three sky bridges that cross a central plaza. As described by The Washington Post, "copper panels and fins along the building give it the appearance of a sea-formed crust. This green copper is patinated: pre-weathered with a film that occurs naturally with exposure to the elements."
