Bob Swaim’s inverted pyramid for Western Savings (1979) was a late contribution to sculptural modern design, though the singular gesture and reflective glass suggests it to be more of a transition building into corporate modernism.

This particular building has a very interesting shaped building that seems to be more of an optical illusion. The architect Bob Swaim designed this more controversial upside-down pyramid for an owner who was determined to create a memorable landmark in the 1970s.
