Bowlcut is the first line of reduced sodium Asian American sauces inspired by the childhood staples were proud to pass on. Founded by a former restaurant kid, Crystal Ung, Bowlcut is based on family recipes and crafted with premium, all-natural ingredients in the U.S. We’re helping to define what eating well tastes like for a new generation.

We’re Hi! - it’s short for Human Improvement. We’re launching in the first half of 2020 on a mission to help humans’ lives a bit better by making it easier to make smart decisions. We’re starting with food, more specifically, we’re starting with protein powder. We got tired of seeing giant plastic jugs filled with ingredients from unsustainable sources and we wanted to see something different and knew others would too. Our approach is simple - make things simple, be good to people and the world we live in and bring some fun to it. We think everything begins with good communication and good product. Some people call that branding. We call it being human.

The Unique Space is located in a historic old factory on 6th in LAs Arts District. With our roots firmly planted in community, we are the home to innovation, creativity, collaboration and entrepreneurship! The Unique Space was renovated and opened in 2013 by Sonja Rasula. It offers a fresh, inspiring work place, private offices, and is LAs hottest new event rental space. Weve got a fleet of Linus bikes for guests and tenants to borrow, a fully-equipped kitchen, an arts/design and entrepreneurship resource library and lounge, a beautiful boardroom that can be booked for meetings and presentations, a rooftop terrace and so much more. With gorgeous exposed brick, high ceilings, wood floors, locally made decor/furniture/wallpaper and other one-of-a-kind details, the environment cant be beat. It inspires passionate, innovative, creative work and collaboration within a design-savvy community of makers, doers, and dreamers. The doors are open and we would love for you to come be a part of the wonderful world of the Unique Space!
