De Young Museum Gardens

Designed by Hood Design Studio

Hood Design Studio led the renovation of the de Young Museum Gardens in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park, masterfully integrating the urban and constructed natural landscape within a previously reworked sand dune environment. This transformative project revitalizes a five-acre space surrounding the museum building, meticulously preserving existing landscape features while introducing new dynamic spaces. These innovatively designed areas cater to both children and adults, fostering a rich interplay between art, architecture, and nature. By blending the urban environment with the natural landscape, this immersive project enhances the visitor experience, turning the area into a haven that nurtures interactions and appreciation for the integration of urban and natural environments.
