This project is a concept design for a social justice center. The site is located between ChinaTown and Downtown, thus, this site is surrounded by plenty of diverse cultures. This building has the dancing floor plans that are going forward and backward on each floor. In the middle, there is a two floor height open green area that provides a hangout space for people. The dynamic building skin is showing the “crack” idea of this social justice center, since “crack” represents the conflicts showing the conflict of gender, cultures, ect. However, it also shows an opening to people. This “opening” means that this building is the place for people to try to get close and understand different cultures and backgrounds.

We encourage designers and architects to share their best projects with the rest of the world so as to inspire the next generation and gain global recognition.
