Mosaic

BEYOND THE STATS

• The genesis of the design Of Mosaic Apartments came from the community itself: through a series of meetings, future residents expressed the desire to have seniors and families live together in one project, but also wanted a degree of separation. This led to a long two-building scheme – seniors on one side, families on the other – with a landscaped paseo running between them the full length of the site, connecting between two streets.
• The paseo is the central circulation court and gathering space for the project – a place for seniors to walk, children to play, and for everyone to interact.

Alvarado Historic District

• Unexpected and almost hard-to-find, this one-street historic district cuts the corner at Hoover and Pico—a string of eclectic, well-kept Victorian mansions, an island of Old LA, only steps away from the bustle of two major boulevards.
