		The Morphosis design seems to us to take many cues from Corbu; the plan for Algiers also came to mind.
		By working carefully and deliberately to sculpt land and building forms into a coherent relationship with the existing urban fabric and naturally advantageous site conditions, we will create a vibrant new neighborhood that will become an important stimulus for creative and optimistic development of the adjacent urban areas for years to come.
		Following are some photos of the Morphosis proposal shown with a few images of Le Corbusier's designs to compare and contrast.

	Thom Mayne - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He is principal of Morphosis, a renowned architectural office located in Santa Monica, California.
		Morphosis’s design philosophy arises from an interest in producing work with a meaning that can be understood by absorbing the culture for which it was made.
		The word “metamorphosis” (from which the name Morphosis is derived) means a “change in form or transformation.” For Morphosis this reflects a design process intuitively embedded within an increasingly groundless modern society that is exemplified by the shifting landscape of Los Angeles (the firm’s home).

		The word "metamorphosis" is defined as "a change in form, undergoing a transformation." For Morphosis, one of the most influential American architecture firms, this word is the source, not only of its name, but also of its philosophy and practice.
		As organic as such edifices may appear, however, their conception was made possible through the use of techniques at the vanguard of computer-generated schematics.
		In 2003, Morphosis was awarded a Progressive Architecture Award for the Palenque at Centro JVC, as well as three National AIA Awards for Lutece, the Hypo-Alpe-Adria Center, and Diamond Ranch High School.

		In a city known for its human-scaled streets and generous housing mix, the addition of Graduate House exhibits a distinct take on housing in the city.
		The building is, however, an interesting predecessor to some of the buildings that have followed from Morphosis; the super graphics, structural expression, and bold lines continue to characterize their work.
