Hidden by a design disaster

-

Sir, – I arrived in Dundee on Saturday last to be greeted with the most astonishin­g sight on the waterfront. Can it really be that Dundee has decided not to embrace the gift of the iconic V&A building?

That the museum is to be hidden behind a much higher, presumably nondescrip­t, unimaginat­ive cube of a building is illogical. If the V&A is not worth being seen, why was it not also simply designed as a cube?

Maybe I am out of step here but I doubt it. Is it too late for common sense to prevail?
