Rolling Greens - Arts District

Architect: Rockefeller Partners

Arts District, Los Angeles

Situated on the outer perimeter of the Arts District community of Los Angeles, an existing metal scrap yard was converted into the newest location for Rolling Greens Nursery + Home; SoCal's premiere destination for unique home + garden. A new retail showroom and nursery greenhouse were created by utilizing 3 of the existing steel "shed" structures. The raw elements of the structure are exposed to celebrate the industrial nature of existing architecture while creating soft, humble gestures towards a modern design. The renovated structures sit within a 2 acre lot that is covered with decomposed granite, newly planted trees, and garden accessories...providing a quiet destination within the urban metropolis of Los Angeles; a diamond in the rough.
