The Bradbury | 2019 _ “I was in a vast hall full of light, received not alone from the windows on all sides, but from the dome, the point of which was a hundred feet above.” is said to be the passage from a utopian novel that inspired the architect to design the iconic Bradbury Building in 1894. Landmarked in 1977, LA’s oldest office building appeared in film noirs, thrillers and as setting for the chase scene of the cult classic Blade Runner in Ridley Scott’s vision of a dystopian 2019. Every time I’m in LA I stop by this building. Entering from Broadway through a nondescript corridor the effect of stepping into the Victorian atrium, soaked in sunlight, ornate wrought iron balconies winding their way up to the glass roof, the warm harmony of polished wood, bricks and ornate terra cotta with open “bird-cage” elevators going up to the fifth floor never disappoints. Quite special to be here in 2019 – and even being interviewed before stepping into the coffee shop that’s taken over the street-level corner now.
