Paul Rudolph's prefab highrise
Built recently, and not prefabbed, but a nice concept from the sixties, to slot in boxes on a frame.
Reminds me of the Borg vessel from Star Trek NG....modularity can be a symbol of death, but in this case( your post), it is almost organic. That is a design problem I like; how to make something look natural from artificial modules or forms.
