SERVICE:

Toyon Hall, a significant historic building originally designed by Bakewell and Brown Architects in 1922, is a three-story structure centered around a magnificent formal courtyard with arcades and arches. The purpose of the project was to preserve, maintain and enhance the building and site. Our scope of work included evaluation of existing site conditions and full landscape architectural services for renovation.

Work attributed to SWA/Balsley principal John Wong and his team with SWA Group.
