STORY TO TELL
This project site had a variety of extreme challenges from a creek bisecting the site to Wildfire restrictions. Five buildings are carefully arranged along opposing banks—linked by a footbridge over a small seasonal creek. The creek was cleaned out, re-vegetated with native species, and re-purposed as a part of a linked community open space/walking trail
