GREEN POCKETS:
WAREHOUSE OFFICE REMODELING/ ADDITION

Compton, California

Office addition in an existing warehouse building shell in the city of Compton. Continuous expansion of the office spaces within a warehouse shell sometimes creates a work environment that lacks natural light and delivers a maze-like spatial experience. The green pocket between the office and the warehouse enhances the work environment by using an artificial vertical landscape as a location indicator or landmark point. The green pocket provides bright space in a deep location of the warehouse, with natural light pouring from the existing skylight right above the green pocket.
