位于印第安纳州哥伦布市的LAA办公室是一家多学科设计工作室，近期，他们将哥伦布市中心的第6街改造成一个蓬勃发展的艺术巷，为休闲、社交聚会和活动提供了空间。LAA办公室与哥伦布地区艺术委员会合作，开启了一系列城市干预项目，包括公共座椅、遮阳结构以及由新兴工作室设计或策划的公共艺术品。该项目被称为第
六 街艺术巷，为城市提供了一个地标，同时也创造了一个社区成员可以多功能使用的空间。
Columbus,
IN—LAA Office, a Columbus, Indiana-based
multi-disciplinary design studio, has transformed 6th Street in downtown
Columbus into a burgeoning arts district that provides a flexible space for
relaxation, social gathering, and events. Working with the Columbus Area
Arts Council, LAA Office initiated a series of urban interventions including
public seating, a shade structure, and public artworks designed and/or curated
by the emerging studio. Called 6th Street Arts
Alley, the
project provides a strong visual identity for the city while also creating
an engaging space that community members can enjoy in a variety of ways.
第六街是蓬勃发展的艺术和设计场所，数个社区组织、创意企业和工作室都集中在该街区半径内。城市激活项目既可以将创意组织相互联系起来，也可以使那些被严重低估的哥伦布建筑重新焕发活力。
6th
Streetis home to a burgeoning arts and design scene with
several community organizations, creative businesses, and studios concentrated
within a one block radius. This urban activation project serves both to connect
creative organizations to one another, as well as reinvigorate undervalued
spaces between buildings in Columbus.
在第六街振兴项目的最新阶段，LAA Office在碎片化的城市中引入了一大片“拼凑而成”的公共空间，使原本不相关的元素之间产生了新的联系。项目需要改善10,000平方英尺的街道，并与当地的学生和社区志愿者一起完成大面积的地面彩绘，以及由艺术家Nick Abstract为Odd Fellows大楼的南立面设计的新壁画。该项目还附带有由LAA Office设计的定制模块化家具套件、Anova Furnishings的可移动花盆以及创新的遮阳和照明顶棚，它们共同组成了三个层面的设计：即地面、墙面和空中。
In the most recent phase of the 6th Street
revitalization, LAA Office introduced a swath of public space over fragmented
parts of the city, so that the boundary of the patchwork produces a new bond
between otherwise disconnected elements.The firm’s work includes10,000 square feet of street improvements and the design
of an extensive ground mural installed by LAA Office along with student and
community volunteers, as well as the curation of a new mural on the south
façade of the historic Odd Fellows building by artist Nick Abstract. A custom
suite of modular furniture designed by LAA Office, moveable planters by Anova
Furnishings, and an innovative shade and lighting canopy also accompany the
project, creating a holistic design that exists on three planes: ground,
vertical, and overhead.

“将三个不同的平面（地面、墙面和空中）分开作为三个画布的想法，与我们将第6街视为室外房间的理解密切相关。现有的城市条件已经在城市中创造了一个亲密的空间。我们的目标是通过特定地点的艺术品让这些界限更加明确和充满活力，”LAA Office联合创始人Daniel Luis Martinez说。
“The idea of pulling apart three distinct planes
(ground, vertical, and overhead) as canvases for artistic intervention is
deeply related to our understanding of 6th Street as an outdoor room. The
existing urban condition already creates an intimate space in the city. Our
goal was to simply make those boundaries more explicit and vibrant through
site-specific artworks,” says LAA Office Co-founder Daniel Luis Martinez.

LAA Office联合创始人Lulu
Loquidis说：“我们最近的作品中出现的一个核心概念，即公共艺术具有修复城市磨损的城市结构的巨大潜力。我们相信公共艺术能够通过为人们创造聚集空间或直接改变城市的物理特征的方式，来形成城市设计本身。我们将自己视为艺术家和设计师中的一员，他们将小巷、停车场和街道改造为能为城市社会生活做出贡献的重要空间。”
Says
LAA Office Co-founderLulu Loquidis, “One central concept
that has emerged in our recent work, is the notion that public art has an
enormous potential to mend the frayed urban fabric of cities. We believe that
public art has the potential to generate urban design in and of itself by
creating spaces for people to gather or by directly changing the physical
characteristics of the city. We see ourselves as part of a generation of
artists and designers who are actively reclaiming alleyways, parking lots, and
streets as vital spaces that can contribute to the social life of the
city.”
