Gehry created a building that has moments where it is "quite conservative and elegant" but also moments where it is "quite flamboyant and over the top," he said. "Frank Gehry, while he's recognized as being an architect, really thought like an artist. He always looked at possibilities, always pushed the limits of materiality," Jost said. Gehry was a lot of fun, a "really great guy," and he "always approached every project as if it was his first project."

It's a good day when somebody gives you 13 Andy Warhols. And what's nice is many of them are super-iconic like the Marilyn Monroes. Those are something you see all the time, the kind of poppy art ones where Marilyn Monroe looks kind of like a drag queen. When you get a series of those, it's iconic people walk in and they say: `I've seen that before!' And that's kind of cool.
