The largest gang intervention program in the nation, Homeboy Industries provides hope, training, and support to formerly gang-involved and recently incarcerated men and women, allowing them to redirect their lives and become contributing members of our community. The model of job training combined with comprehensive wrap-around services, all in a community of acceptance and growth, creates a catalyst for change, leadership and hope.
Our design concept was to bring Los Angeles street art into the space. We created a neutral framework inspired by the tough materials of LA streets: ribbed concrete-colored tile and textured stainless steel. Homeboy Industries recommended Fabian Debora, their longtime counselor and artist, to create the ceiling mural ‘Inner Self Inner Voice.’
CSA developed and produced the signage and ‘About Homeboy’ graphic and facilitated construction of the ceiling mural.
