An interesting idea has produced a very interesting structure to help revitalise downtown L.A..
The idea is to have a “multi-zoned” tower that’s open all hours (just like all downtowns should be), and it’s been injected organically into a tower to produce a very promising looking structure.
Keep an eye on this. It could be very interesting.

Interesting shape, for something. That middle section makes it look like the building would fold in a good earthquake but no doubt they've considered that.
Can't figure out what the purpose of such an odd-looking design would be, though. Seems like an exercise in being different for the sake of being different.
I like the dual-purpose idea, something Wright used in the Price Tower in Bartlesville, OK.
The organic shape really appeals to me. A movement away from stiff rigid lines, so rare in nature, would make downtown areas less stressful and abrasive.
