But in order to bring a complementary element to street level, developers turned to renowned L.A. sculptor Cliff Garten. For inspiration, Garten considered traditional Korean art, the diversity of the area, and, as he put it, \u201cthis overriding idea that Los Angeles is a city which is changing all the time. Like Baudelaire said, \u2018This city changes faster than a beating heart,\u2019 and that\u2019s really true of L.A.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Vermont has a very clear view of L.A.\u2019s changing landscape as its main pavilion lies directly across from an L.A. Metro subway station, which promises in coming years to connect several West Side neighborhoods to Koreatown and Downtown in a way never before possible. For an area looking past L.A.\u2019s auto-centric stereotypes, Garten\u2019s design fittingly transforms the Vermont\u2019s parking structure into an engaging, multilayered work that celebrates diversity and the city\u2019s forward momentum.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\n\t<img class=\"lazy\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.staging.arc.ht\/wp-content\/themes\/architizer\/assets\/images\/blank.png?ssl=1\"\n\t\tdata-src=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864440280edit.jpg?fit=max&#038;w=1680&#038;q=60&#038;auto=format&#038;auto=compress&#038;cs=strip\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-srcset=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864440280edit.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1680&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1680w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864440280edit.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1080&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1080w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864440280edit.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=760&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 760w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864440280edit.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=625&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 625w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864440280edit.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=368&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 368w\"\n\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1680px) 1680px,(min-width: 1080px) 1080px,(min-width: 760px) 760px,(min-width: 625px) 625px,368px\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"\"\n\t\titemprop=\"contentUrl\"\n\t data-recalc-dims=\"1\">\n<\/div>\n<br \/><i>\u201cLos Angeles Opens Its Heart of Compassion\u201d \u00a9Cliff Garten Studio\/Photography by Jeremy Green.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Garten\u2019s sculpture features a <a href=\"http:\/\/architizer.com\/products\/fabricoiltm-facade-system\/\" target=\"_blank\">Fabricoil\u2122<\/a>coiled wire fabric system covering the parking garage and affixed with silver anodized line drawings of lotus petals. This fa\u00e7ade creates a transparent background for the centerpiece sculpture, a three-dimensional aluminum lotus flower suspended 20 feet in the air. Because the Lotus is a fixture of Korean art and a symbol for the heart of compassion in certain meditations, Garten saw the combination of sculpture and fa\u00e7ade as a representation for the area\u2019s converging elements. \u201cThere are all of these overlapping cultures coming together all of the time that make Los Angeles,\u201d he says \u2014 hence the title, \u201cLos Angeles Opens Its Heart of Compassion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Out of the many finishes and materials available through Fabricoil, \u201cHeart\u201d utilizes a 5\/16&#8243; 14 gauge aluminum coiled wire fabric with a clear anodized finish and Clamp engineered attachment system. Garten was drawn to this particular system for its transparency, flexibility, and ability to capture light. The fa\u00e7ade he designed curves both away from and toward the parking structure, letting the architecture behind it remain visible while also creating different shadows and depths depending on the time of day. After dark, LED lights turn the wire fabric into a pulsating canvas of alternating complementary colors, while the central Lotus is a constant, contrasting white.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\n\t<img class=\"lazy\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.staging.arc.ht\/wp-content\/themes\/architizer\/assets\/images\/blank.png?ssl=1\"\n\t\tdata-src=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864040994untitled-copy.jpg?fit=max&#038;w=1680&#038;q=60&#038;auto=format&#038;auto=compress&#038;cs=strip\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-srcset=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864040994untitled-copy.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1680&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1680w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864040994untitled-copy.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1080&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1080w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864040994untitled-copy.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=760&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 760w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864040994untitled-copy.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=625&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 625w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864040994untitled-copy.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=368&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 368w\"\n\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1680px) 1680px,(min-width: 1080px) 1080px,(min-width: 760px) 760px,(min-width: 625px) 625px,368px\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"\u00a9 Jeremy Green\"\n\t\titemprop=\"contentUrl\"\n\t data-recalc-dims=\"1\">\n\t<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 Jeremy Green<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<br \/><i>\u201cLos Angeles Opens Its Heart of Compassion\u201d \u00a9Cliff Garten Studio\/Photography by Jeremy Green.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s that mishmash and overlapping of styles and concepts that makes the city,\u201d Garten relates. \u201cI think that\u2019s the important thing about \u2018Los Angeles Opens Its Heart of Compassion\u2019 \u2014 it\u2019s a complete understanding of this urban context and a sculptural projection into the architecture and the urban environment of this idea of overlapping and colliding cultures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fabricoil\u2019s available customizations also made it possible for Garten to deal with a more practical aspect of this corner in Koreatown: its scale.

So, it could take this big image, and the building needed that to actually compete with the rest of the urban context.\u201d While some architects find traditional woven-metal systems cost-prohibitive for even small projects, like delineating interior spaces, Fabricoil offers an affordable solution for projects even of this size.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\n\t<img class=\"lazy\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.staging.arc.ht\/wp-content\/themes\/architizer\/assets\/images\/blank.png?ssl=1\"\n\t\tdata-src=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864054588untitled.jpg?fit=max&#038;w=1680&#038;q=60&#038;auto=format&#038;auto=compress&#038;cs=strip\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-srcset=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864054588untitled.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1680&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1680w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864054588untitled.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1080&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1080w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864054588untitled.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=760&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 760w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864054588untitled.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=625&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 625w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1435864054588untitled.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=368&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 368w\"\n\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1680px) 1680px,(min-width: 1080px) 1080px,(min-width: 760px) 760px,(min-width: 625px) 625px,368px\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"\u00a9 Jeremy Green\"\n\t\titemprop=\"contentUrl\"\n\t data-recalc-dims=\"1\">\n\t<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 Jeremy Green<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<br \/><i>\u201cLos Angeles Opens Its Heart of Compassion\u201d \u00a9Cliff Garten Studio\/Photography by Jeremy Green.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>With a vast range of sizes and materials, Fabricoil can provide solutions to meet everything from practical ventilation to grand, artistic visions like Garten\u2019s.
