Designed by Snøhetta and HGA as part of UCSF’s Comprehensive Parnassus Heights Plan, the building is intended to strengthen connections between the campus, the surrounding neighborhood, and the adjacent Mount Sutro Open Space Reserve. The project emphasizes natural light, flexible research environments, and sustainable design strategies that support long-term adaptability.
RDH is providing Facade Review and Design Assistance and Building Enclosure Design Assistance services for the project, supporting the development of a high-performance enclosure that aligns with the project’s architectural, environmental, and long-term durability goals.
