Torrey Pines, San Diego, California

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

This project is the site of Alexandria’s San Diego corporate headquarters on the iconic Torrey Pines bluff. The headquarter is nestled into a slope, ringed by the regionally native Torrey Pines. In early summer, it is often blanketed by fog. Upon arrival to the property, one encounters a bold explosion of flowering desert plants, thickly planted in angular, rugged gravel. The garden features a large event lawn surrounded by tall wispy grasses, flanked on one side by an arroyo with whispering sycamores and cottonwoods.
