A 'what if?' themed Los Angeles exhibition is on its way to be showcased by A+D Museum, Sam Lubell, and Greg Goldin for spring 2013. Never Built is a project currently underway that pushes the urban design perspectives and dreams into wild extends.
Los Angeles is a unique city for the fact that it doesn't have a city central, but is rather divided into districts that have their own niche offerings. Never Built museum will demonstrate master plans of parks, transportation and other areas of urban life through video, writing and other media channels.
The upcoming Los Angeles exhibition will unveil spectacular stories of the city's past urban design and the blunting attitudes to maximize the city's potential; it will motivate the engineers and planners to once again, dare to dream.
