ASLA Honors San Francisco Corporate Headquarters
“A beautiful tapestry of color and texture. The trick was to make it about the view. It’s visually exciting with a subtle richness.” 2009 Professional Awards Jury
OLIN’s design for a corporate headquarters in San Francisco, led by CEO/Partner Lucinda Sanders, has received a 2009 Honor Award from the American Society of Landscape Architects. Modern, fresh and clean, the gardens are inspired by the abstract works of the De Stijl movement. The design incorporates fine materiality into bold, modern gestures that reflect the corporation’s identity as well as its key location on the thriving waterfront of San Francisco. Over a former industrial site, the gardens create new social space and assist in managing stormwater and mitigating the urban heat island effect. For more information visit
