The balance between building new architecture and preserving historic work is ever-evolving. With Ampersand, our challenge was how to reimagine the previous headquarters of the San Diego Union-Tribune as a captivating modern space, without losing its unique historic qualities.
We brought to life two buildings located on this historic site by creating common ground between them and strategically preserving the bones of each building. The demand for unique amenities in combination with modern aesthetics is continuously growing and we wanted to accommodate this need by going beyond expectations.The design throughout the site broke the barriers of your typical office building. Using landscape to form pathways and existing architecture to create intimate moments, Ampersand is the future of the San Diego workplace.
