I need an explanation

once it was a humble theatre in the heart of Tel Aviv, originally designed by the architect Oskar Kaufmann in 1935, with a facade that reminded somehow of another theatre built by him before in Berlin - The Volksbühne. today, thanks to the design of the architect Ram Karmi, it will become a huge concrete block shadowing its surroundings. a closed box that looks more like a bunker rather then a public space. the plaster covering these unproportional walls is made so bad that even the quartz particles, that suppose to give them a glittery touch, won't help...
