Architecture is a constantly evolving profession. Construction techniques and structural possibilities keep improving and changing. This pulls architecture in many directions. The influence behind these homes seems to be based on a revival of Frank Lloyd Wright, Corbusier, Mies, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc. But these influences are being interpreted through the eyes of modernist, contemporary architects. I love seeing the profession (and Calgarians) evolve.
