Smith and Williams: Sunset Canyon Recreation Center (Los Angeles, Calif.)

Wayne Williams and Robert Meyerhof, associate partner in the Smith and Williams’s office, designed a multi-level arrangement of decks and stair landings with an elaborate post-and-beam system that gives the impression of a tree house. The University of California, Los Angeles, program requested an open place, with few physical boundaries, to encourage informal meetings and conversations between faculty and students.
