Take a look into the future vision of LA
With all the upcoming renovations, projects and proposals in Los Angeles, have you ever been curious as to what future LA may look like? These proposals help us get a vision of how we may live in LA in the future years to come.
In order to fully utilize public space there is a proposal to create a “mini-city” above Wilshire Blvd. This will allow a shared economy and future self-driving cars.
Rises taken to a new level with a 930-foot-tall stack of individual houses that will have a direct connection with green space via a terrace and that will offer a unique environment.
The non-traditional high-rise living situation would be right next to the future Fairfax Purple Line Station. A vertical village features 9 towers connected by bridges and landings, and with “floating garden patios” while sitting on undulating podiums that act as community space.
One project focuses on marrying densification with water- consciousness. The end result is public space and living space that also functions as a vehicle for capturing and eventually returning water to the LA River.
How about an alternative to Granny Flats with a resident-owned, low-rise, high-density housing movement to support affordable housing and mixed-uses. The plan involves units that could hold a studio or one-bedroom apartment and engage the community in the development process. Asymmetrical mash-ups of Spanish styles or Queen Anne show what a “Normal” house will look like along the river’s shores.
