Mia Lehrer of Studio-MLA and associate principal Matthew Lysne showcase their latest stadium projects in Los Angeles. Taking the design lead to each site's landscape and urban layout, Studio-MLA teamed with HKS, Gensler, and Levin & Associates, among others, to showcase their landscape designs for Dodger Stadium, SoFi Stadium, and Banc of California Stadium.
Studio-MLA provided Archinect with images of all three larger-scale projects and descriptions. Mia Lehrer shares, "Our new stadium-parks offer a model for economic recovery and for improving the urban experience, including as cities recover from the pandemic and reinforce efforts to address social inequities."
Project Description
"The renovated landscape for the 260-acre site furthers the client’s goal to strengthen their fans’ experience and memory of the stadium. Children’s play areas and giant Dodger bobble heads and uniform numbers bring whimsy and create new ways for fans to interact with and remember the stadium. New pedestrian terraces separated by trees and planted slopes improve wayfinding, safety, and security throughout the site."
Project Description
"Studio-MLA led the design of the site by exploring the unique historic context of Exposition Park and the Memorial Coliseum. To accentuate the connection of this urban park into its surrounding neighborhood we created distinctive edges for promenades, flexible plazas, and gardens. The series of entry plazas curates the arrival experience and contribute to the visual identity of the Stadium."
