The Venice Design Series benefits Venice Community Housing, an organization critical to the resilience our LA neighbors without homes. Each day, but especially in times like these, their work also protects us all.
 

 

Experience the variety of architecture spanning the 20th into the 21st century in one of LA’s most affluent neighborhoods. Join us as the Venice Design Series explores some of Brentwood’s marvels in what was the original Sepulveda Ranch, a Spanish land grant awarded to the Sepulveda family and gradually sold off over the years.

We were happy sponsors of this event prior to the outbreak of Covid-19. We are even happier with Safer-At-Home orders in place to support Venice Community Housing in its efforts to ensure all Angelenos have homes to be safer-in.

You will still have the chance to see the fire wise and awe inspiring renovation of one of our favorite FormLA Landscaping gardens! This tour will take place in 2021 and include the work of some of the city’s finest architects and landscape designers, including Frederick Fisher, Frank Gehry, A. Quincy Jones, Marmol Radziner, and Jay Griffith.

We’ll share more details here as they become clear. In the meantime, be well!

At their quarterly thought leadership events, USGBC-LA works to highlight a local sustainability issue, have an informed discussion amongst industry leaders on action-oriented solutions, and make collective commitments towards progress.

The first strategy session of 2020 will focus on our urban landscapes.Our urban landscape could be so much more than it is today. A true force for fighting climate change and restoring habitat as well as addressing issues around social equity, food access, health, and wellness.

The goal of the discussion for this event is to discuss why our urban landscape is what it is today and how we can work more collaboratively, more intelligently, and use the tools we already have to make our urban landscape in LA more than it’s ever been.
