On the site of the old Sun Microsystems campus, this 435,000 square foot intergenerational "urban village" in Palo Alto was brought to life by the passion and vision of many local visionaries after almost a decade in development.
This mixed-use site brings together the Oshmann Family Jewish Community Center and the Moldaw Family Residences as a place for young and old to share recreational, educational, cultural and social pursuits.
The campus is symbolically and metaphorically infused with rich cultural tradition. The color palette was based on the seven species of Israel and outdoor pathways are lined with trees reminiscent of Jerusalem.
After the first presentation of qualifications and meetings were conducted, Inside Source "stood out as the most capable in every aspect." Through we provided furnishings and design services, our most impactful contribution was to develop a distinctive and creative budget tailored to meet the needs of a non-profit client funded almost entirely through fundraising efforts with a fixed budget.
