The proposed building for Perth. Pictures: Unique 8 Design Studio
Top Perth architects have warned against rushing to build an iconic building at Elizabeth Quay, saying it could be a costly white elephant if not done right.
They believe the best landmark buildings were not designed as icons but became so because they fit the location, filled a need and used world-class architects.
Debate over what sort of building should be put up on nearly 50,000sqm of prime waterfront real estate was ignited this week when Burswood designer Shane O'Riley unveiled his unsolicited vision for a new concert hall.
The skeletal-style design split public opinion, with some likening it to an elephant graveyard or a rack of lamb, while others hailed it as a bold piece of architecture.
The Elizabeth Quay master plan has the space earmarked for an indigenous culture, arts and learning centre.
University of WA dean of architecture Simon Anderson said Mr O'Riley's design was "just an idea" but reaffirmed the view a "major sculptural cultural building would be a good thing".
He pointed to modern Chinese cultural centres as an example of well-executed sculptural design.
"Given that the building will be seen from above - from Kings Park and the towers in the city - it will always require a 3D form," Mr Anderson said.
He said the prominence of the site was akin to that occupied by Sydney Opera House but he cautioned against a city-defining building for the sake of it.

Quay white elephant warning
Two architects have come up with the idea of building a train system, which travels up and down skyscrapers faade in the megacities of the future.
The Vertical Hyper-Speed Train Hub, pioneered by UK-based architects Christopher Christophi and Lucas Mazarrasa, embodies the idea of train carriages supported by magnetic tracks running up the skyscraper's exterior.
...The proposal will flip the traditional form and function of the current train station design vertically, and re-form it into a cylindrical mass to increase the towers train capacity..., they have said.
...Passengers will travel into the main lobby allowing travelers to ascend through the atrium and through the platforms and onto the carriages....
The carriages are made to pivot, allowing the passengers within the carriage to remain in an upright position and facing towards the cityscape. Each carriage could accommodate 10 people sat in two rows opposite each other.
The designers have asserted that the proposal would reduce CO2 emissions, increase energy security, and revolutionize international trading relations.
...The project will become a repeatable piece of infrastructure that can be implemented to support any city around the world, connecting to a new Hyper Speed under and over ground network, with trains covering an average distance of 300miles in 30 minutes....

Architects propose vertical train system
A developer is proposing a new business park, north of Palladium Drive and west of Huntmar Drive, in Kanata.
(Stock image)
The proposal, for a subdivision, calls for the eventual construction of a little over three million square metres of office and industrial space along with more than 300,000 square feet of retail space, spread out over 193 acres.
In the planning rationale filed with the city, the developer is identified as West Ottawa Land Holdings. That company shares an address and phone number with Taggart Realty.
The plan calls for the extension of Palladium Drive to the north, where it would bisect the development. At the moment, the development plan calls for building heights of below four storeys, though that could change.
Current plans call for each of the 27 lots designated for development in the subdivision to be dealt with independently by city planning officials. The rationale also says that a planned expansion of rapid transit to the area would allow for taller building heights in the future.
Organizations: West Ottawa Land Holdings
Geographic location: Kanata
