Map of the Pacific Rim

Project: Los Angeles Convention Center - South Lobby

Clients: Alexis Smith

Location:  1201 S. Figueroa Street Los Angeles CA

Commission: illustration and design of the medallions for South Lobby floor mural

The expansive surface of the terrazzo floors at the two entrances of the Convention Center were designed by artist Alexis Smith. The South Lobby design is an enlarged map of the Pacific Rim spread over a 50,000 sq. ft. floor with inset medallions with cultural motifs from Pacific Rim cultures. The West Lobby floor maps out the night sky on its two levels. Each lobby map is abstract up close, but readable as a whole from the level above.
