DETAILS

LocationGlendale, California, United States
ClientBohlin Cywinski Jackson
Size10.5 acres

SWA provided landscape design services for the redevelopment of existing corporate offices at the Grand Central Creative Campus, a center for innovation and creativity on 10.5 acres of mixed office, amenity, parking, and outdoor space. The design is organized around a strong central pedestrian spine that frames the Verdugo mountains to the east; connects people with a variety of pedestrian streets; and provides flexible outdoor rooms for intimate meetings and larger group activities. This LEED Silver project employs drought-tolerant plants, recycled water for irrigation and fountains, sustainably harvested wood furnishings, and reclaimed wood to create inspiring spaces. At the client’s request, a Sycamore bosque leads the visitor into an “Enchanted Forest” of winding paths, seating, and lush plantings.
