Maybe a design by SoNo Arhitekti perhaps?

A bit like the Slovenia pavilion.

Daniel Libeskind also does a lot of those angular cantilever designs.

Includes several with angular designs "mixed" with other styles.

Last week's building was Verner Johnson's "Museum at Prairiefire." The architect describes the building as "a regional civic hub bringing world-class educational traveling exhibits." The design concept "evokes the imagery of one of the most unique aspects of the Kansas tallgrass prairie: the prairie fire burns."
