The LA river is a massive network of man made concrete moats and tunnels and wedges that channel excess rain water through the city to prevent floods. What really appeals to me about the LA river is the scale and the sheer defiance of man in the face of nature. My initial idea is slightly similar however i want my concept to live in harmony with the environment. The shapes are extremely important in channeling the water and i must always be aware with my concept that form will play an important role.
