LIVE-WORK LOFTs

CHA:COL has been at the forefront of interior architecture with its work on live-work lofts and creative spaces in dense downtown Los Angeles since 2008. From neighborhoods as varied as the bustling Historic Core to the warehouse-heavy Arts District, we have tackled unique urban problems.
