What would happen if you mix two master architects with opposing styles?

Prime  example would be Mies Van Der Rohe and A. Gaudi. Or on a more contemporary, Zaha Hadid and Richard Meiers?

@Urbanist, so you're saying Gehry is Gaudi 2.000

The Des Moines Art Center might be a good example

That's Eliel Saarinen, Pei, and Meier.  Thought, I suppose they aren't all that opposing.

@curtkram, One is a master of white cladding, one for glass, and the other for concrete?

You get the new World Trade Center, way too many chefs in that kitchen.
