Welcome to our San Francisco studio
Tucked beneath the Bay Bridge overlooking the water, our studio has certainly carved out its place in the City by the Bay. Inside our LEED Platinum workplace, we spend our days designing a better future for the city around us. Research and purpose are at the forefront of everything we do: we’re committed to innovation for the greater good of our community. And, we’re proud to live up to a California stereotype or two: sustainability is non-negotiable, and keeping our cool is key.
Working with the Redevelopment Agency of Salt Lake City, we developed a Vision Plan for a downtown district committed to advancing community wellness and delivering equitable outcomes.
The community engagement process included a variety of outreach touchpoints that revealed a series of common themes and observations that were critical to the users and neighborhoods of the Rio Grande District. These themes ultimately guided the development of the urban design framework and placemaking strategy.
A new health sciences education tower in Downtown Oakland. This 225,000 sf, 10-story tower is a “mixer building,” with spaces to learn, focus, collaborate, and socialize. A variety of program uses are held together by the social, collaborative spaces that are also expressed on the building exterior. The building mass is split into volumes with roof terraces at Levels 2, 6, and 10, providing areas of respite from intensive hands-on learning. The design intent is to invite collaboration and promote healthy living, embodying the ethos of the University.
A state-of-the-art life science campus, The Landing is the first step in catalyzing a broad new innovation district in an underdeveloped urban area along Bayshore Highway. With two new 6-and-7-story buildings and associated parking garage, the project aims to attract industry-leading life science companies.
