About

There are more than 200 businesses here, all design- (or food-service) related. Included are a pair of art galleries, Dassin and Art Connection. Both have very full stocks and cater to the legion of interior decorators who pass through this stunning, only-in-L.A. pair of interconnected buildings. The all-windows, blue-tinted postmodern half of this complex was completed in 1975. Thirteen years later, sister Green came along. Brother Red is still in the plans. The Pacific Design Center is a chameleon-like structure that looks different to everyone. We prefer to think of the place as the ultimate postmodern chessboard: from some spots it resembles a rook; other vantages, a queen. Massive and unmistakable, the P.D.C.'s never a pawn.
