Project Description
The project glows at night with LED lighting that contrasts the poured in place concrete walls and decks. The sculptural metal facade shielding the parking structure is designed to capture the blue LED lighting at night and plays up the billboard nature of Los Angeles while screening the parking. During the day the color shifts to highlight the orange vertical bands against the concrete. The building comprises two levels of parking over one level of retail stores. The dense urban fabric along 3rd Street has a shortage of parking and the Owner wanted to create additional parking to be leased out to the neighboring restaurants at night.
