Chan Zuckerberg Institute
This third floor roof terrace serves as an outdoor lounge and dining area for this headquarters for CZI in the middle of a downtown area. It provides both a refuge from and a vantage point to the urban scene as it unfolds two floors below. Custom planters define a casual “firepit” type area. Linear Corten planters w/vine trellis screens define and separate an adjacent dining area. Finally a “kitchen garden” featuring edible plants provides a setting for small group lounging and meeting.
