Darlings of
the architectural undergrad, Santa Monica, California's Morphosis, currently headed
by co-founder Thom Mayne, created a large following through
a layering device: layering of spaces and materials. Since the
departure of co-founder Michael Rotondi the firm has embraced
digital media, using the computer to develop forms that veer
from the orthogonal, such as the Diamond Ranch High School in
Ponoma, California. Their design for Graduate House (with Teeple
Architects) at the west entrance to the St. George Campus
of the University of Toronto recalls their earlier work, particularly
the Salick Health Care Office Building of 1991, each building
creating a strong presence in their respective setting through
a juxtaposition of unconventional, harsh materials and transparent
materials. |
