TRANSITIONS II

Transitions II
Los Angeles, California

Transitions II is part of an eight-project mural contract created for Step Up housing developments across California, focused on transitional and supportive housing. Located on West Third Street in Los Angeles, this large-scale mural combines vibrant botanical elements with symbolic birds in flight, representing hope, transformation, and renewal. The layered composition brings warmth and vibrancy to the building façade, turning it into a visual landmark for the neighborhood.

From a business perspective, Transitions II demonstrates how strategic public art can elevate affordable housing projects by enhancing curb appeal, strengthening community identity, and supporting a developer’s commitment to placemaking. By blending fine art with architectural context, the project underscores the role of murals in shaping vibrant, livable urban environments.
