Yeah, this is a Jo-Ann of the 90s. This was a display area at the center of the store (laid out like a racetrack with two wide cross aisles through it) that's not well used these days.
Ty'r Bont, which the Pevsner Guide to Gwynedd notes was reputed (in 1982) to be the first postmodern classical house in Wales. The guide is unimpressed, describing it as "tired and dated, the fate of most PoMo buildings".
To me it looks bright and lively - infinitely more so than almost every modern building along the seafront. I found an older picture of the house on flickr, which shows that the glazing of the big central window (lighting a double-height space) has been replaced and slightly simplified, but the sense of a sunburst is still very strong. What you can't tell from this picture is that the arch at the top of that window echoes a vaulted space inside.

500 Brickell is a residential complex in the Brickell neighborhood of Miami, Florida, United States.
The complex consists of two condominium towers, 500 Brickell West Tower and 500 Brickell East Tower. The two buildings were designed as twin towers, and rise 426 feet (130 meters), with 42 floors. Both skyscrapers were designed by the Arquitectonica architectural firm and the complex was developed by Thomas Kramer's Portofino Group in partnership with the Related Group of Florida. The towers' construction began in April 2005, was topped out in mid-2007, and was completed in 2008.
500 Brickell was originally designed to emulate a giant arch. Both towers are connected by a 10-story base, and the top floors of the two towers are also connected by a large white roof. The roof was designed with a circular hole to direct light into the courtyard formed between the two buildings, where a large pool is located.

"I mean it has subject matter built into it if it is taking in anything that's external to itself in a way it's hard for photo to just be - paper, a flat picture plane what with ink on it paper exposed [...] so photo causes a big problem in all of this and that might have a role to play in why photography is so important to post-modernism because it doesn't fit modernism very well."
