The Sea Grove
This urban activator located in Santa Monica, California right on Ocean Park Blvd. brings life and a new type of leisure to the California coast. These occupiable “Sea Groves” encourage exploration, and create a unique forest-like pier that hugs its visitors.
These tree structures are supported by their exoskeleton pattern which simultaneously create both shading within its spaces and a water retention system to give back to its environment.
