It all started off an empty lot right on Abbott Kinney, in Venice, Los Angeles.
Our challenge was to build, in two months, a useful and playful spot for the already super fortunate Venice Community.
So after some extensive brainstorming we landed on a modular concept that would allow the locals to enjoy activities ranging from co-working to yoga classes.
For this modular design, we had two key features.
The Fenesk - a fence that turns into a desk.

The milk crate seats.

This is a short video that tells the story of the project.
