 The verdigris-covered dome and golden finials of Ocean Chambers on West George Street in Glasgow have a special place in my heart. They are one of the first architectural features I remember looking at in Glasgow when I was young and thinking 'Wow, that's amazing!'.

 @e20e4053 It’s breaks the otherwise perfect symmetry of the building. Also it’s interesting that he went with a square dome rather than a more usual round one.
