Responsible, as co-lead consultant, for site analysis, conceptual design, photo simulations, and construction documents/administration. The visitor center is located on the 8,300-acre ecological reserve in southwestern Riverside County. The design theme is a layered experience of aesthetics/ “sense of place”, fun through exploration, education for all ages (including 8,000 annual third graders), and environmental stewardship. The scope of services included design for an ADA Accessible Interpretive trail, five demonstration native plant communities, entry improvements, monument signage, interpretive/ educational features, covered presentation stage/ platform, event patio, and parking expansion.
