Mithun’s “SkyPark” design concept in Los Angeles accommodates pedestrians, eVTOL (electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft) operations, electric bikes and scooters, charging infrastructure and connection to transit with an expansive public amenity at the ground level.

When hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans 15 years ago this month, the site where the Louisiana Children’s Museum (LCM) (@louisianakids) now sits was under several feet of water. Back then, the museum was housed in a brick building in the Warehouse District. “The idea to move was not because of a plan to expand. It was motivated by a need for the city and state to invest in children differently,” says LCM CEO Julia Bland, whose mission for the museum went beyond entertaining children for a few hours. LCM engaged Seattle-based architecture firm @mithun_design, which includes a landscape architecture practice, to negotiate the 8.4-acre site, located within the world’s largest grove of live oaks, in City Park. The museum’s new 54,600-square-foot home is spread out between two linked two-story structures that were carefully sited to protect the oaks while enhancing the nearby lagoon. A diatom-shaped bridge over the lagoon features a fog sculpture by artist Fujiko Nakaya. Read the story from our August issue at the link in our bio.
