It is a beautiful building. It was designed by Thomas Maine of Morphosis Architects.
.
Why is that name recognizable???
.
Is it because his first big commission was Kate Mantalli, the restaurant in Beverly Hills? (ps - I saw the Pointer Sisters there one day and we discussed UCLA Basketball.)
.
But, no, that is not why.
.
Is it because he designed the LA CalTrans building - an eco friendly outpost in Los Angeles.
.
It is really cool - but no, that's not why.
.
Very cool building thou - right.
.
But that is not why.
.
why.. why .. why.. It's on the tip of my mind. What was it.

Oh yeah - he taught at SCIArc where I put someone through Architecture school - and was offered a job at Mr. Mayne's office. A job he did not take.
