The SelgasCano studio has unveiled its design for Second Home in Hollywood, the London-based workspace company, is developing an offshoot in Los Angeles.

Second Home Hollywood will open in September 2019, an extensive urban campus of 90,000-square-foot (8,361-square-metre), comprising bright yellow work pods interspersed with a lush plantation, to breathe fresh air into the workspace arena, wiht a cultural programming of “social impact” and spaces surrounded with thousands of plants and trees.
"Throughout our long working relationship with Selgascano, which began in 2014, we have created innovative environments that bring together diverse communities and generate new ideas."
Sam Aldenton and Rohan Silva, co-founders of Second Home.
 
Second Home Hollywood will mark the first US location of the British company, folowing the first in east London, also by architects José Selgas and Lucía Cano, which provides studio and office space for creatives and entrepreneurs.

Second Home Hollywood will be home to 250 organizations and will feature: a branch of Second Home’s bookshop Libreria, a 200-person auditorium, post-production facilities, a restaurant, outdoor terraces, and meeting and event spaces.

According to the design team, Second Home Hollywood is a contemporary interpretation of LA’s early 20th century bungalow court residences and incorporates ideas and elements that expand upon southern California’s architectural legacy. The campus is made up of 60 single-story, oval-shaped studios unified with a sinuous, yellow roof plane. the individual pods, linked by winding pathways, are nestled in lush gardens populated with more than 6,500 plants.

Prior to the opening of the venue in september 2019, Second Home is partnering with the Natural History museums of Los Angeles county to bring selgascano’s 2015 Serpentine pavilion to La Brea Tar Pits.
