CROSSING BOUNDARIES / EL CENTRO CITY HALL
“While usually massive and not inviting, a City Hall should be transparent enough for the residents but keeping the level of privacy that city authorities require. This thesis proposes a new City Hall that breaks down boundaries between communities and power as well as create a visual legacy for the City of El Centro”.
