I've been looking at architects that make less "conventional" looking buildings and one of them in particular stuck out to me. Daniel Libeskind is an architect that uses lots of sharp shapes and striking forms to create very "unique" looking buildings.
The buildings he designs have an eccentric look to them, with sharp irregular angles. I think these shapes would look great in a recreation of clock-town. With the right context I feel that these shapes would prove intimidating.
The second architect I look at was lebbeus woods. A section of his work named "WALLS OF CHANGE" displays very primitive looking buildings that are structural sound, yet have sharp edges, and generally a more interesting form.
I really like the wood like scaffolding in his work. I feel It would look great in clock-town, especially on the tops of the buildings. It will defiantly give more complexity to the very square buildings.
