TWIN-GYM
IN DTLA

Drawing from the infrastructural nature of downtown LA, my project seeks to intensify this language of overpasses and artificial grounds by considering the structural system of my gym to be made up of 3 infrastructural trusses. The two masses are sheered apart to bring light and views to the deep interior. Each segment houses a distinct set of programs that require large spanning column-free spaces. The forms of the truss allow for large-scale spaces on the interior while making way for my mega program of a public park and community event space on the roof above. The interlaced roofs also provide circulation between the two parts of the gym.
