从表面上看，这感觉像是一个时代，因为加州可以声称自己处于建筑设计的前沿。这个案例研究系列可能已经启动了一种美学，但尽管长线、低矮和轻盈的设计风格依然存在，但它早已演变成有创意的对冲基金经理的默认选择，他们的标价与之相匹配，而不是原本打算成为的低成本住宅。不过，只要从表面上看，就会有很多事情发生。

出席洛杉矶当代艺术博物馆的新展览“新雕塑主义”的38家公司展示了当代南加州设计的独特的规模和风格，从盖里合伙人、格雷格·林恩、莫菲西斯和埃里克·欧文·莫斯创造的征服世界的形状，到沃伦·特伦丁、罗托、科西亚日、洛坎·奥赫利希、布鲁克斯·斯卡帕和更多的创新住宅和文化项目。

定期的读者将熟悉壁纸*建筑师目录过去的大多数这些名字；足以说，仍然有很多火在加州的设计社区。根据所提供的证据，把现代建筑师的正式冒险行为的大部分功劳(和指责)都归咎于加州人的脚下并不算太过分，就像早期盖里(Gehry)和欧文·莫斯(Owen Moss)的解构主义一样，早期盖里(Gehry)和欧文·莫斯(Owen Moss)的解构主义发展成了一幅数字设计的景观，由斜面、曲线、角度和挤压组成，可能会在全球产生影响。

这个展览是在20世纪80年代初由盖里设计的经典空间中进行的，将有三个特别设计的全尺寸展馆，由Atelier Manferdini、P-A-T-E-R-N-S和Tom Wiscombe Design以及模特和图像组成。
