Del Mar City Hall and Civic Center

This project achieved an Orchid Award from the San Diego Architectural Foundation

A seaside island of unhurried, civilized living, the city of Del Mar is known for its laid-back charm. The Del Mar City Hall expands the lush and walkable village center south along Camino Del Mar, providing important indoor and outdoor public gathering spaces.

Del Mar City Hall offers views of the Pacific Ocean from garden terraces flowing directly into Town Hall and City Council Chambers, as well as City Hall public spaces. An expressed wood structure throughout the main public spaces with wooden trusses and wood exterior cladding, is in agreement with the Coastal Craftsman style of the Del Mar Library.
