FORMAL STRATEGY
The formal strategy was the system of unraveling of the surface to create various formal languages to fit the different programs. The inspiration has been driven by the idea of the lily pad that is inhabiting the water, and act as a platform in
supporting the environment, which is the Art District and Boyle Heights.
