@ktuaplanner • SDSU dedicated the upgraded ENS 700 Field on October 3, 2019. The field includes new turf technology, modern LED sports lighting, and an enhanced surrounding landscaping that transform the edges of the field to create a park setting. The curvilinear terrace walls, along with the meandering decomposed granite path around the perimeter of the field, help soften the edges. Stepped terraces for seating are on the south side of the field in lieu of retaining walls to address the grade difference.

@cdladesign • Wow! Grab your swimsuit.. We’re crazy excited for our La Jolla Guest house feature in @wallpapermag ! The pool/guest house genre often conjures up images of lazy Californian afternoons and elegant Slim Aarons-style pool parties.

@vdla.landscape.architects • La Colonia Park Master Plan— VDLA headed a team of consultants to produce a master plan and construction documents for renovations for this 3.79-acre park and community center. Located in the historic neighborhood of Eden Gardens, the master planning process centered on multiple community workshops and presentations at community gatherings to galvanize public participation and prioritize community needs. Public communications included canvassing the neighborhood with bilingual flyers, posters and mailers, and information booths at multiple community events. Successful methods of input gathering included visual preference surveys, scale models and assisting individuals to sketch preferred site designs. The master plan encompasses upgrades and additions to the community center, including a new neighborhood plaza as a ‘front door’ to the neighborhood (replacing a parking lot to be relocated), a veteran memorial courtyard where veteran ceremonies and other special events can be held, a renovated soccer field and spectator areas, expanded parking area, enhanced tot lot, picnic areas and a skate park.

@ojbla • Before being renovated into a creative office space, MAKE was an electronics manufacturing plant and the San Diego Floral Trade Center. This renovation project transforms the existing 200,000 SF industrial property into a class A commercial office space by “breaking the box,” creating a 40’ wide interior amenity courtyard that includes a fitness center, café in a re-purposed shipping container, a small amphitheater and several terraces connected to tenant spaces. #ojbla
