The Campus at Playa Vista

The Edward Durrell Stone Building’s revived shared spaces offer sophistication, intrigue, and lush beauty while preserving the Modernist sensibilities of Durrell’s original design intent.

These garden forecourts form a processional sequence for visitors walking from the ground level into the tenant lobbies. Richly detailed courtyards between the buildings utilize different combinations of paving materials and drought-tolerant plants to create a unique mood and identity for each entry.

Second-floor terraces allow tenants to move freely from indoor to outdoor spaces, transforming the workplace, and fourth-floor terraces provide sweeping panoramas of the Santa Monica Mountains and downtown Los Angeles. Each parcel has direct access to or views toward Central Park, establishing a strong relationship between architecture and landscape. Offering a welcome respite from Los Angeles is busy an urban environment, this low-density district promotes connectivity and the benefits of an indoor-outdoor office environment.
