Located in the Arts District of Los Angeles, this 37,000 sq. ft., 8 story heavy timber office building cultivates a green landscape onto a high rise. It is a response to the people, place, and plants that reside here. Long span beams and shear walls make up the primary structural configuration of the building. Floor plates are square in shape, and rotate 45 degrees at each level, thus creating unique indoor and outdoor residual spaces in conjunction with the shear walls.
