New program aims for swift Palisades, Altadena rebuild minus cookie-cutter look
Briefly

Case Study 2.0, initiated by Crest Real Estate, comprises over 40 architectural firms focusing on rebuilding efforts in fire-ravaged areas of Los Angeles, particularly Pacific Palisades, Altadena, and Malibu. Designs like those from Backen & Backen and Solkatt offer innovative architectural solutions, while also aiming to streamline the construction and permitting processes. This initiative draws inspiration from the original Case Study program post-World War II, emphasizing the need for cost-effective, attractive housing amidst the loss of over 11,000 homes due to recent fires, highlighting a combined effort to restore community connectivity.
Backen & Backen's single-level home design, alongside Solkatt's pitched roof concept, showcases diverse architectural approaches aimed at facilitating fire recovery in affected areas.
The Case Study 2.0 program strives to speed up rebuilding efforts and reduce costs post-fire, echoing strategies from the post-WWII housing boom.
