How do you transform a site in the middle of Los Angeles with little- to no historical context or value beyond land cost and proximity to public transportation into something spectacular?

Through an examination of the distribution of temporal and spatial activity or program within a “structured” field of opportunity, spontaneity and life can be curated.

An approach to site planning through the analysis of program as a biological “morpho ecology” lead to this physical manifestation of spontaneity and limitlessness.
