CGI images of what the flats could look like. A Leeds councillor said they reminded him of 70s design,He said: “It’s probably more exciting than the things we built in the 1970s, in terms of the hexagonal approach.
“We did test a variety of colours. It could have been red terracotta, but we thought that would get lost and diluted among the office buildings and other buildings around it.”Mr Bansal also responded to criticism about the flats being designed without balconies, saying that because Leeds is “windier than most cities, with tall buildings with balconies become a real danger.”A sky lounge, at the very top of the building, would be created for residents to relax, however.
