Cycle of Rehabilitation: LA Supportive Housing

This project poses a new cycle of rehabilitation (in opposition to the cycle of addiction) for the addicted homeless population of LA. Exterior walkways with the apartment units represent the only private elements of the complex. Otherwise, the complex is open to the public to help the many unsheltered homeless/addicted in the area. 

Once in the courtyard, the entire complex focuses inward, a constant reminder of community, support, and interconnection. The interlocking wings imply a connection between all aspects of the recovery process, and the flexibility for anyone to follow whatever path they need on the road to rehabilitation.
