This web site is meant to be the class diary  for a 3rd year Architectural Design Studio at Woodbury University. Each student will have a section of the web site and will use the site as a touch stone for common class information and general critique.

Our site is on the Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles California USA. The project program is to provide a housing mix for about 70 families. Some street retail will also be a part of the project.

 Please feel free to send us your comments at eyespeak@earthlink.net
