This Design build project was a unique opportunity to retrofit an underutilized parking island into a unique Reflection Garden. Located on the grounds of the Long Beach Veterans Hospital, this unused island was transformed into a walking hub with seating areas. The paths are designed to direct the busy pedestrian flow from the parking areas and between buildings. By utilizing unique planting and massing, each pedestrian is able to experience a unique experience throughout the year. The seating where located to create opportunities of people watching within a garden setting. This garden is a positive addition to the Long Beach Veterans Hospital.

NOAA Research Facility on the campus of Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego, in beautiful La Jolla, California is the new, state-of-the-art research facility designed to incorporate sustainable “green” design features throughout the incredible coastal-inspired building. This is the largest green roof construction in all of San Diego County. The landscape portion of the project was designed to blend into the existing hillside using native species. Marina will be revegetating multiple segments of the campus, incorporating local preservation measures throughout the surrounding area, and developing custom lightweight soil mixes for use in the green roof gardens.
