DTLA Justice Center

Justice Center is the place to protect people with special needs. The space to bring people together. Our site project is located at 400 S Central Avenue 90013, Downtown Los Angeles.

This project is inspired by Arcus Center for Social Justice Leadership, Kalamazoo. The place focuses on natural light and has public and private spaces in the middle to the corner of the building. My design starts with a public entrance located on the ground level and public/ private space on the First, Second, and Third levels. The underground level is a private area with different access. The materials used for these designs are curtainwall, wood, and concrete.
