New 'Micro Park' Installed In West Hollywood

The micro-park, called Kaleidoscope, sits at the intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and La Peer Drive.

WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA – The City of West Hollywood has installed the third in a series of micro-parks at the intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and La Peer Drive. The micro-park, called Kaleidoscope, is a series of colorful, rotating, mirrored acrylic squares that reflect light and the surrounding area to create a visual and experiential on the sidewalk.

The micro-park offers engagement with it's audience as interaction with Kaleidoscope changes it's appearance – visitors can move the squares, walk around it, and sit on one of the two swing chairs.

Kaleidoscope was conceived by Daveed Kapoor of Utopiad in collaboration with Rob Berry of Berry and Linné. As with all of the City of West Hollywood's micro-parks, pictures are encouraged to be shared on social media with #micropark.
