Lorcan O'herlihy,Faia a Distinguished Practice Since founding his firm in 1994, Lorcan O’Herlihy, FAIA has utilized LORCAN architecture as a catalyst of change to shape and enrich the complex, O’HERLIHY,FAIA urban landscape of our contemporary city. The work of his firm, Lorcan O’Herlihy Architects (LOHA), is guided by a conscious understanding that A DISTINGUISHED architecture operates within a layered context of political, developmental, environmental, and social structures. With studios in Los Angeles and PRACTICE Detroit, LOHA has built over 90 projects across three continents. O’Herlihy and LOHA have produced work that has been published in over 20 countries and received over 100 awards throughout the years including the AIA Los Angeles firm of the year. The diverse work of the firm ranges from art galleries, bus shelters, and large-scale neighborhood plans, to large mixed-use developments, housing developments, and university residential complexes. Each project by LOHA exhibits O’Herlihy’s belief that artistry and bold design are key to building a vibrant, social space to elevate the human condition via the built environment. MARIPOSA1038 SL11024 BIG BLUE BUS STOPS O’Herlihy spent his formative years working at I.M. Pei Partners in New York and Paris on the addition to the Grand Louvre Museum. The LORCAN experience working on a project that harmoniously coupled art and O’HERLIHY,FAIA architecture was paramount to his design philosophy and installed a passion for aesthetic improvisation and composition. In addition, O’Herlihy A DISTINGUISHED also worked as a painter, sculptor, and furniture maker. The breath of scales—from being part of a design team for a large public art institution PRACTICE like the Louvre to intimately producing art and objects—melds his inclination for material exploration and formal inflection which form the basis of his eponymous firm, Lorcan O’Herlihy Architects [LOHA]. Academic and intellectual pursuits are integral and ongoing pursuits within O’Herlihy’s professional design practice. He has taught and lectured extensively throughout his career at notable institutions including: the Architectural Association, London; University of California, Los Angeles; Southern California Institute of Architecture; Cranbrook Academy of Art; Columbia University; Pratt Institute; Carnegie Mellon University; and the National Building Museum. Currently, he is an Adjunct Professor at the University of Southern California. GRUPO GALLEGOS HQ FORMOSA1140 LORCAN O’HERLIHY,FAIA A DISTINGUISHED PRACTICE SL11024 In over two decades in practice, O’Herlihy and his firm LOHA have amassed a significant body of work and has been published in over 20 countries. In 2004, the Architectural League of New York selected Lorcan O’Herlihy as one of the eight emerging voices in the United States. In 2009, O’Herlihy garnered the prestigious College of Fellows of the American Institute of Architects status. His commitment to design excellence in commercial, educational, and residential projects has earned over 100 national and local design awards, including the 2010 AIA Los Angeles Firm of the Year Award. O’Herlihy has been nominated for the 2014 American Academy of Arts and Letters Award in Architecture, the 2017 Cooper Hewitt National Design Award, and the 2017 Marcus Prize in Architecture. In 2017, LOHA was ranked the #5 Design Firm in the Country by Architect Magazine’s ARCHITECT50. He is a licensed architect in California and Michigan and is a GSA Design Excellence Program Peer.

MARIPOSA1038 DESIGNING FOR DENSITY PROGRAM LOCATION 32-Unit Multi-Family Los Angeles, CA Housing SIZE COMPLETION 68,000 SF 2017 A simple cube pushed inward on each of its sides, Mariposa1038’s curves grant relief from the sidewalk and return portions of the ground plane to the public realm. Window frames project outward to recapture the space between the new geometry and the property edge. Shadows across the white and black facades activate the neighborhood with a dynamic sense of constant rearrangement. The carved opening creates a central focal point for the building’s interior organization and lets natural light into the courtyard. DISNEY IM DIGITAL STUDIOS INSPIRING INNOVATION PROGRAM SIZE 3D Film Performance 120,000 SF Capture Studio, Offices, and Theater LOCATION COMPLETION Novato, CA 2010 This massive project transformed two former Coast Guard hangars into a full-production film studio. The design for the studio promotes complex and dynamic interactions, nurturing a robust and multifaceted work environment. Interior layout is conceived around the premise of ‘strange loop,’ a term used in film to describe narrative movement through interconnected levels, where one eventually finds themself back where they had started. These ideas of dense circulation and discovery is translated into physical spaces that support creative presentation, contention, and resolution. AFRICAN BEAD MUSEUM BOLD RESILIENT DESIGN PROGRAM SIZE Art Gallery, Visiting 6,000 SF with 6,000 SF Artist Accommodations, Public Art Park Administrative Spaces, LOCATION Storage, and Public Art Detroit, MI Park COMPLETION 2018 Located on a major boulevard in Detroit, the MBAD African Bead Museum is a multifaceted arts and culture campus founded by artist Olayami Dabls, a visionary leader in Detroit’s artistic and urban rebirth. Occupying a series of townhouses covered in Dabls’ exterior wall murals, the museum is a beacon of the community. LOHA’s design and master plan for the Museum includes the renovation of all of the buildings, creates a new entry to unite the Museum complex, a gallery space for exhibitions, climate-controlled storage for Dabls’ significant collection of African art, visiting artist residences, and administration facilities. Using simple, industrial-grade materials, in addition to the brick of the original structures, the design retains the language of the neighborhood context and signals the Museum’s role as a leader in the city’s future. BIG BLUE BUS STOPS ELEVATING THE URBAN FABRIC PROGRAM SIZE 300 Low-to-High Density 20-200 SF per Shelter Bus Stops LOCATION COMPLETION Santa Monica, CA 2016 By distilling the standard bus shelter motif to its most fundamental elements, LOHA designed a highly flexible, modular system of components, which allowed for precise, tailored configurations that easily adapted to each bus stop. The project’s staged roll-out and kit-of-parts approach allows for ongoing adjustments and future customizations to each site. The universal application of a striking blue color palette, incorporated into all of the concept’s built elements and bold graphics, created a system of iconic markers, which aesthetically elevate the urban fabric and improve evolving perceptions of public transportation in the Los Angeles metropolitan region.

Published June 23, 2014 Morphosis office In Culver City. Photo: lwan Baan. Thorn Mayne's firm Morphosis has famously roused the ambitions of clients typically reluctant to take risks-even with government agencies such as the General Services Administration (GSA). ARPA .Journal spoke with Cory Brugger at Morphosis to see how the office uses practice as a site for experimentation. As Director of Design Technology, Cory tests ways to leverage technology for the practice, from parametrics to materials prototyping. Editor Janette Kim asked him how ideas about research have emerged within the methods, techniques, and processes of production at Morphosis. Janette Kim: What is the role of research at Morphosis? Cory Brugger: As a small practice (we still run like a ma-and-pa shop), we have been able to stay process-oriented, with small agile teams and Thorn involved throughout the entire project. In the evolution of the practice, design intent has always driven our projects. We start with a concept that evolves relative to the context (social, pragmatic, tectonic, etc.) of the project. R&D isn't something we're setting aside budgets for, but rather something that's always inherent and central to our design process. We find opportunities to explore technology, materials, construction, fabrication techniques, or whatever may be needed to realize the unique goals of each project. JK: This is exactly why I thought of Morphosis for this issue of ARPA .Journal.

It’s important to celebrate LA’s is an idyllic beauty and grace as often, as loudly and as clearly as we can. However, we’re also the place. hotbed for almost every physical, natural and human-made challenge the world has to offer including climate change, severe drought, an aging infrastructure, unaffordable housing, a concrete and treeless environment and, much of the time, unforgiving traffic as well as being in a region prone to earthquakes. Let’s face it. We don’t really have the money, the time and seldom do we seem to have a system in place that has the social and political capital necessary to engage and solve these issues and yet we know we can take on these challenges. A prime example of this is measure R that is making major inroads into our transportation network, so we know we can do it. However continuing to do business as usual - attempting to solve these vast and substantial problems in isolation from each other – will only yield marginal results, at best. By learning to ask better questions, and focusing our efforts on the future we’d like to see how we, as a region, could work together to identify more effective and aspirational solutions. As Architects we are accustomed to integrating complex criteria from multiple disciplines to elicit elegant solutions that satisfy fiscal, social and functional issues.

Processing the universal rather than the specific aspects of urbanism, these zoning codes have a limited capacity to adapt to local significance and site-specific characteristics, to which architecture is much more responsive, and thus often constrain design innovation. Although various attempts have been made to improve the interconnection between the universal and the specific, we need a wider array of analytic frameworks within the discipline of architecture for evaluating the broader implications of the codes that regulate the form and use of buildings within the context of contemporary city planning. Taking architecture as an intermediary instrument, this study develops the notion of code manipulation as an analytical framework to be used for stimulating and evaluating designs beyond the constraints of code.

This event is reserved for Patron and Life Members on a first-come first-served basis. Tickets are $25 per person; reservations will be limit- ed and the event will only be opened up to the regular membership should space be available. Recently featured in the home section of the January 17th edition of the Los Angeles Times, the 1957 Pasinetti house (first published in Arts & Architecture in January 1959) is a fantastic story of a remarkable house slated for demolition—only to be saved by unusual cir- cumstances and the foresight of a unique individual leading to its ultimate rebirth through a superb rehabilitation. Haralamb (Bubi) Georgescu (1908-1977) had established a 15-year career in Romania from 1933 to 1947 and was at one time the Chief Architect to the City of Bucharest. He designed office buildings, apartment blocks, hotels, department stores, restaurants, night- clubs, the King’s Summer Palace, the Romanian Pavilion at Leipzig Fair, and the Aro Theatre, which is considered his most important work and remains a landmark of Bucharest today.
