San Antonio Station: Transformation of An Introverted Site into A Large Campus Landscape

San Antonio Station 10

SWA has a landscape retrofit project for San Antonio Station. It transforms an introverted site into a large campus landscape which is open, flexible, connected. At first, the project site is a mall called Mayfield Mall. It is the first enclosed shopping mall in California, United Station. The site is reinvigorated with a new name because of the location near to a Caltrain Station.

The inspiration for the landscape design comes from the 1960s geometries and graphics which is popular earlier. It is the same thing with the existing materials and structures too. It doesn’t have too many changes to it.
