Thom Mayne, about this parcel...
starchitect
"The lot operates as an interface. It is exposed, relentlessly, to a circulating gaze that is amplified by devices, platforms, and repetition. Privacy here is not a given to be protected, but a variable to be constructed against a preexisting condition of visibility."
