About
San Diego is a city of Canyons and Mesas. We considered the building as both ‘Mesa’, a form to be occupied, and ’Canyon’, a space to travel through. The canyon like interior extends at every floor to the existing hillside, while open stairs traverse up the sides of the space like switchback trails, providing a variety of places for students to hang out.
