If there is supposed to be a design in that metal façade then it's impossible to see. Everyone says it's supposed to be a satellite view of downtown Kitchener but I can't seem to make anything out that corresponds to streets or city blocks. It just looks like random holes in the metal that lets light in/out.
It’s a black-and-white aerial photograph. Once you get oriented as to which direction everything is going you may find it easier to see, but it’s sufficiently low resolution that getting oriented isn’t that easy. Unfortunately the effect doesn’t come off the way I think it was intended; in particular, one can see where the lights are behind rather than the entire appearance coming from the pattern of holes.
Unfortunately the best photo I can find right now is this daytime shot:

I believe the railway line runs diagonally from about 2/3 up the left side to near the top right. I thought somebody posted a good nighttime shot here somewhere that would be easier to see.
But yeah, overall the effect doesn’t come off the way I think they hoped.
