i think it would last especially with the shapes of the wall being similar with the shapes of the walls of a beehive.

...hi there... so much so.. but i think there's a small loop hole with the materials, the wall is made up of plastic...

Lol, I really didn't pay much attention to the way they built things. I'm just glad to hear that in one of the cities with the greatest air pollution on earth they are doing something environmentally friendly. Will it last? As with any new material only time will tell. They can make a guestimate about it but nobody really knows. The building looked interesting though.

... i agree with that, only time can tell really... ...well, i'll say, at least they try to be earth friendly, also. and its a good thing that they're doing something for a change... and oh.. we should all start thinking about our planet..right? :-)
