Gladly :-)
What I mean is this. The sun in your scene, is exactly in front of the 
building. The result is that - from the point of view of the camera - you do 
not see any shadows cast by the building, which makes it look flat. By 
moving the sun to the left (or to the right) shadows will become visible, 
thus creating a three-dimensional effect. If, at the same time, you move the 
camera to the right in order to see the side wall of the building, you will 
complete the effect even more.
