Designed by Johnston Marklee, the UCLA Margo Leavin Graduate Art Studios are conceived as an urban plan in miniature, where shared streets, gardens, and courtyards connect clusters of intimate, domestically scaled studios. Old and new structures are woven into a single 48,000-square-foot fabric that supports every mode of artistic practice. Developed through close dialogue with students and faculty, the project embraces openness and indeterminacy, offering a flexible architectural framework rather than fixed boundaries. The result is a spatial commons—a place where making, experimenting, gathering, and exhibiting overlap in a continuously evolving environment shaped by the artists themselves.
