We’re honored to be among the six finalists, selected by Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, for the Memorial to the Victims of the 1871 Chinese Massacre in Los Angeles.

The Memorial is an overdue acknowledgment of a dark chapter in US history; a mass lynching that took place in Los Angeles in which 18 Chinese men were tortured and killed.

Our proposal builds upon the gestural experiences and spatial metaphors in the raising and lowering of one’s head and the feelings that they elicit.

We rely on the elements in our design to engage the participant at the visceral, physical and poetic levels; to inspire personal interpretation, contemplation and deeper engagement.

In honor of the 50th Anniversary of SCI-Arc, founded on this day July 19, 1972, the following is a letter written by Founding Director Ray Kappe. Addressed to SCI-Arc students of the future, the letter is shared generously by SCI-Arc founding faculty, Professor Emeritus of Architectural History, and wife of the late Ray, Shelly Kappe, passing along these ten tenets to SCI-Arc students of yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

"1. Think positively, not negatively.
2. Accept structure but know that it is to be questioned and broken when necessary.
3. Always be willing to explore, experiment, and invent. Do not accept the status quo.
4. Know yourself and be consistent with who you are and how you think.
5. Maintain good moral and social values.
6. Be humble, honest, compassionate, and egalitarian.
7. Have conviction about your work.
8. Be open and say yes to most ideas and requests. The good ones will be valuable, the bad ones will cease to exist.
9. Allow employees and fellow workers freedom and the ability to work to their strengths. Avoid hierarchy.
10. Money should be the residual of work, not the goal. But do not compromise your worth.

Sincerely,
Ray Kappe, FAIA
Founding Director, SCI-Arc
Quoted by Shelly Kappe, Hon. AIA
Founding Faculty, SCI-Arc"
