After an international competition, the Natural History Museums of Los Angeles County selected the New York–based firm to re-envision its 13-acre campus.

Conceptual master plans by Dorte Mandrup, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, and Weiss/Manfredi take different approaches to unifying the disjointed museum campus.

Three architects will compete to reimagine the landmark and research site.

The structure, to be installed at La Brea Tar Pits, will host a series of public talks and events.
