The initial study and force behind this concept was notion of movement. The task began with creating a series of 2D linear paths that would be reflective of the site’s engagement with its surroundings. The corner site, sitting along Chinatown’s metro station in Downtown Los Angeles, sits as a bustling transition point for the local community and the developing sectors immediately around it. Through the development of a composition of layered and weaving lines, the line work which initially only served a 2-dimensional purpose was repurposed as the launching point into the mass’ 3D evolution.
