The impending renovation of Marshall Hall will necessitate the temporary relocation of the LA studios to another space. What if this inconvenience were a design opportunity, a chance to reimagine the spaces where we work and the spaces that surround our campus?
In this project, we explore temporary studios as a modular system located within a near-campus district. We also investigate the potential of such a system to change public perceptions of underused urban space, and to instigate long-term improvement of ecological, economic, or social health across the district.
Temporary studio space will be provided in a decentralized system of modules containing individual workspaces and supporting functions. Designs will function in the short term as workspaces, in the medium term to change public perceptions of this area, and long term to improve social, ecological, and/or economic health at a landscape scale.
