Multi-Family Residential/Mixed-Use

Coast Ventura
City of Ventura, California
Johnson Development Associates

A unique 11-acre, 231-unit multi-family project located between the 101 Freeway and a coastal railroad in Ventura, CA, Coast Ventura is a fresh take on seaside luxury. Challenged by the City to create a new style while still being authentic to the seaside details and post-modern design, the landscape features fun and whimsical spaces that celebrate the spectacular views and sunsets. A nod to post-modern design, a 2-story palm tree spotlights a landscape that is so integrated into the architecture that it actually cuts holes through the roof.

Using planting materials that are indigenous to the Channel Islands of SoCal along with various other plants and materials that accentuate the strong Ocean, Sea Green & Sunset color palettes that were carefully crafted from the natural landscape of the site, as well as seaside accents like the rammed earth benches in the Grand Promenade and the beach fossils in the tot lot sand area, plays up the harmonious marriage of landscape, color and theme throughout.

The Harvest at Terra Vista
City of Rancho Cucamonga, California
Lewis Companies

The Harvest at Terra Vista mixed-use project is a first of its kind in Rancho Cucamonga, CA. This unique 17.2 acre community brings together the city’s first wrap apartments, combined with walk-up apartments and surrounding 20,000 sf of retail space to create a modern farmhouse-themed village, adjacent to the existing Terra Vista Commons Retail Center. The 323-unit walk-up and 346-unit wrap apartment buildings being 3 & 4 stories, respectively, created a challenge in how to celebrate the harvest theme in an urban community. Ultimately these moments were created in the farmhouse architecture, harvest-themed art accents and murals, and pocket gardens with steel graphic placards to illustrate what’s growing below.
