A primary project goal was to reintroduce and restore native vegetation to the previously developed site, which had no water resource features. The design team increased the amount of outdoor space and integrated those spaces throughout the design, aiming to restore natural hydrological features typically associated with the local environment. A lush courtyard was designed with natural materials, greenery, and water, serving as the anchor of the property.
