Marin Academy

San Rafael, CA

Through CMG Landscape Architecture, Bay Area Redwood was able to lend its expertise on what locally sourced urban wood materials could work for the Marin Academy courtyard project. This project is part of Marin Academy’s Vision 2050 plan to create beautiful communal spaces around the campus. Working alongside CMG Landscape Architecture and BUILD Group Inc, we provided sustainably sourced Monterey Cypress Decking for this outdoor seating area, a material deeply rooted in the local landscape. The cypress provides a warm and bright color when freshly cut and oiled and then oxidizes with a beautiful silver patina that shimmers in the sun and will continue to provide beauty and function to the space.

Thanks to the thoughtful design and considerations from the Bay Tree Design Landscape Architecture team, the contractor expertise of Cagwin & Dorward, and the sustainable materials provided by Bay Area Redwood, we completed this new Nature Play playground for the Prospect Sierra students. Our team provided the eucalyptus stumps and logs used throughout the 0.5-acre space. All materials were carefully sanded and prepared for integration into the natural playground design.
