While observing Grand Park, the topic of Democracy, I couldn’t help but look at the immediate adjacencies representing the three branches of government: The Criminal Justice Building, City Hall, and The Los Angeles Police Department Headquarters. The project footprint accounts for unimpeded public movement and flows across the site. Considering the civil rights, social justice, and ideological debates of 2020 and 2021, this project responds to and becomes part of a society looking back at itself and learning to live with the simultaneity of different voices and points of view in a perfected democratic society; programable enclosed/semi-enclosed volume occurs mainly within the established building envelope, roughly equivalent to that of the County Criminal Courts building.
