reflective designs

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi
I am doing a research on Architects who have designed buildings which fit like a dress on the sites if the sites were bodies.
Any info regarding designs that have adapted themselves best with the sites topography or climate or any prevailing charachter, or just about any architect who lets his site develop the concept.
I did look into Frank lloyd wright's falling water, maya lin's vietnam memorial,and eileen greys E1027 but they just arnt some how fitting into what i am looking for.

Any kind of help would be deeply appreciated

Diller & Scofidio: the blur building
Tadao Ando: Rokko Housing
WM+P: Guantang Chuangye Development
Dominique Perrault: villa one

Not sure if these will help. Are you looking more towards a sustainable approach or mearly theoretical?

Cristo may not be an architect.... but he's an expert on dressing the site.
