Taalman Koch Executive Architect
Pompei A.D. Design Architect

Taalman Koch was hired by the Design Architect, Pompei A.D. in New York, to act as the local Los Angeles Architect for the Shell of a new type of Urban Outfitters complex. Situated inside four masonry bow truss warehouses, Urban Outfitters developed the entire complex spanning three properties and occupies the anchor site while renting "laboratory" retail spaces for up-and-coming boutiques. Our expertise was applied to keeping the design vision, existing masonry structure, and the campus-like nature of the existing building's grouping intact through the zoning, permitting, and construction process.
