Studio Gang-designed Building F is set to become the social hub of Mission Rock, a mixed-use neighborhood by the waterfront in San Francisco.<\/span>

Located at the heart of Mission Rock<\/a>, an upcoming mixed-use waterfront development in San Francisco, Studio Gang\u2019s<\/a> Building F is designed to become the new neighborhood\u2019s social hub and central community gathering space.<\/p>\n

Reinterpreting the typical tower podium, the 29,265-m2<\/sup> (315,000-sf) building\u2019s base is carved with steps leading up to a mesa-like space with sunny planted terraces and raked seating. The terraces offer views of the activity in the public square below. At ground level, shops and caf\u00e9s bring their own unique character to the storefront, further contributing to the neighborhood\u2019s lively public realm.<\/p>\n

The sculpting strategy continues up the tower, where floorplates are carved back at the corners to create comfortable outdoor terraces that complement San Francisco\u2019s indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Oriented and shaped to maximize sunlight and minimize wind, as well as provide great views of the surrounding city and the bay, the terraces continue the \u2018social topography\u2019 begun at the mesa. People will be able to relate to the scale of the building due to the careful attention paid to its terraces, the varying depths of the fa\u00e7ade, and the building\u2019s materiality. Clad in terra cotta tile with slight variations in color and a suite of different profiles, both the design and the details bring a human dimension to the architecture.<\/p>\n

At the tower\u2019s top, residents can relax, socialize, and enjoy skyline views of Oracle Park and the San Francisco bay among the lively sky garden. This garden\u2019s regionally appropriate plant scape creates an attractive place for birds, butterflies, and other pollinators to visit, supporting healthy bio-diversity within city.<\/p>\n

Quezada Architecture<\/a> is the associate architect on this project.<\/p>\n

\u201cBuilding F will be at the heart of Mission Rock, housing amenities for the entire neighborhood that overlook a new public plaza and vibrant streetscape. For the residences, we designed a tower inscribed with terraces, extending this indoor-outdoor living and offering views amidst elevated bio-diverse gardens,\u201d said Jeanne Gang, founding partner of Studio Gang.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
