DATSUN BODY AND DESIGN CENTER BY MATTHEW TROTTER (ARKITECT)







DATSUN BODY AND DESIGN CENTER
(~60,000 SQ FT)

Located between the 10 and 110 freeway, the Datsun Body and Design Center is a tribute not only to the japanese classic car but to Los Angeles' car culture also. Instead of actual car movement dictating the architectural language, the building is designed around the movement of spaces, machinery, and car parts. The project also strives to connect the tuning passion of car enthusiasts and the spatial quality of churches, hoping to create a spiritual feeling between the car and admirer.
