Come find us at our new (temporary) location:
601 McCarthy Blvd.
Milpitas, CA 95035
The long site, which runs from east to west, is divided into four zones which move from urban to garden. Starting at N. 1st there will be a “City Plaza” with stone paving, porous paving, urban water elements and large scale art elements. Surrounding this plaza, where people come from the light rail, bus and car drop off, are a café with tables and chairs spilling out, Samsung Expo to showcase the latest technology from Samsung and the entry into the Tower Courtyard.
A central campus green space unifies the whole campus much like a traditional academic campus. The tower sits on one side and the dining pavilion sits on the other side. Employees can gather, hold Samsung events, meet, eat lunch and refresh.
At the far west of the site is the Sports Garden. Here the site becomes more naturalistic and planted with lush native trees and plants. In between trees and grasses are sports courts and clearings for outdoor meetings and gatherings.
The Garage is long and thin to provide the space at grade for the amenities and a more green character.
The tower is clad in white metal and clear glass, carefully balanced to reduce solar heat gain and provide a sense of lightness. The podium is clad in more warm terracotta hues and metals that are sympathetic to the traditional colors of San Jose and merge into the city and the landscape seamlessly.
