United Oil Opens?
After years of chatter around the blogoshpere, Kanner Architects' unique gas station on Slauson and LaBrea in Los Angeles finally opens for business. At least that is what our sources tell us...


Aaaand... we are still not able to get this bit of insider information up on the web before a certain someone else did earlier today. Oy vey! So rather than telling you about all the delays, the praise and criticism, the Dutch seamless flooring, Spanish glass tile, monstrous curved channel glass, and massive amount of beautifully crafted stainless steel that was used in this project, we will just provide you with some eye candy recently taken on site. You be the judge...

Wow what a design
Great even has a hole for UFO access when the prices get low. Beautiful design, but does it have bullet proof windows for that part of town? Seriously very beautiful, the designers have to be proud. Joe
