And in the 90s, the cooper building anted up for the fashion district, working to persuade the LA city council to establish the city’s first business improvement district. Today, renovated as cooper design space, the building at the corner of 9th and Los Angeles streets is at it again as home base for LA creatives. The building hosts a space that embraces cross-pollination among LA lifestyle businesses in fashion, media arts and publishing. A space that encourages fluidity across functions by offering studio, office and showroom in a single location.
