This man is essentially rebuilding one of his best known projects for a complex at Golden Dream Bay in Qinhuangdao, China. In what Philip Kennicott called "a perfect exercise in the clean lines and megalomania of police-state architecture," an aircraft-carrier sized park rests on top of three separate towers for a hotel he designed in Singapore. He dammed a river to create the two pools which divide the eight (*) shell-like pavilions of a forested art museum. This architect used a dove's wing for the shape of the white roof of the United States Institute of Peace and designed the Crystal Bridges Museum. He made his name with a project that varied a single concrete box construction into 15 different styles of 158 modular, interlocking homes near the Saint Lawrence River. For 10 points, name this Israeli-Canadian architect who designed the Habitat for Montreal's Expo 67.
