The program has been divided into three parts: the Port Service Center, the Cruise Terminal and the Concourse. Each of these program components are placed in long bars that create a layering effect to the site. As connections are made to the city and the cruise ships, these bars respond to these forces and the building conforms like a fluid filling the container of the site. The space between the bars allows for horizontal movement and the flow of landscape elements through the building from the adjacent parcels. The circulation of people and vehicles through the site also penetrates the layers of the building, working their pathways under and through the bars to get to their appropriate destination. The form is united into one building by the atrium enclosure, stitching the two bars into one building. This project for the Kaohsiung Port and Cruise Service Center sets out to resolve three basic conditions: strengthen the waterfront edge, mediate between the scale of the cruise ships and the city, intertwine the building to the adjacent parcels. While resolving these conditions, the project also creates a meaningful experience for both travelers and residents of Kaohsiung. This building becomes a focal point on the harbor with the intertwining forms of the program seen from across the harbor and the city, revealing the building organization. The layering of bars and three-dimensional arrangement of volumes reinforce the appropriate location of the program elements, a high quality passenger experience, integration of recreational and public experiences and views from many different points in the building.

San Diego CCD, City College Quad Programming, Architectural & Interior Design Services | San Diego, CA
This new multi-building expansion project creates new gateway plazas at the southeastern portion of the campus that will serve as a key entry link to the campus from the surrounding community. Near the multi-modal transit station at Park and C Street, this major expansion project was developed in a collaborative, Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) format with the owner, users, CM, sub-trades and design professionals as participants. As the executive architect, Roesling Nakamura Terada Architects, Inc. (RNT) worked closely with the Community College District and campus/neighborhood stakeholders to develop the program consistent with their goals and specific needs. This new campus expansion is a three building complex consisting of a five-story, 86,400 SF Math and Social Science Building (MS) and a 180,000 SF, five-story Arts/Humanities (AH) and Business/Technology (BT) Quad. This expansion complex opens up and links City College to the East Village area of Downtown San Diego. The urban side (facing Broadway St.), utilizes a new parking structure as a buffer to quietly shield the classrooms from the traffic on Broadway. Through the design process, the building program and the “in-between” spaces were formed together to create a diagonal exterior pathway between the buildings and defining a Main Entrance to the College from the city grid, and a “gateway” connecting the city grid to the upper campus. Along this gateway outdoor spaces for student activity, study and social dialogue were created. One of these in-between spaces forms a large upper plaza where students can gather for social events and academic discourse. In the tradition of many historic colleges this space functions similarly to the traditional academic quadrangle and from this came the affectionate nickname given to the project by the design team “the Quad”.
San Diego City College, Math and Science Building and Parking Structure Programming, Architectural & Interior Design Services | San Diego, CA
This new 86,400 SF five-story building consists of general, math and social sciences classrooms, student convenience store and bookstore, computer classrooms, anthropology labs, faculty offices, faculty/ student collaborative workrooms on all floors, an education center and a seven-story Parking Garage. Similar to the UCSB Site near the Davis Library, the City College project site was challenged with vehicle, pedestrian and bicycle circulation constraints on a small area site for the program. The courtyard design optimized site conditions and provided views and daylighting for all classrooms while providing outdoor gathering space for students to collaborate. Each floor has student collaboration zones and various classroom sizes including a lecture auditorium and a larger conference center. The design phase involved many user workshop meetings and design presentations with physical models to reach user and campus leadership consensus. The goal was to design an efficient classroom and office environment adaptable to change, while providing east campus student support programs and abundant forms of collaboration spaces. With LEED Silver certification, the project incorporates many energy saving principles, including solar shading, extensive daylight harvesting, energy efficient and durable building envelope, and future PV power production capability. The design team determined that a concrete structural frame would provide durability along with maximizing the acoustic needs and attenuation with the site’s location in a loud urban area in San Diego’s airport flight path. The design intent was to create an enriched student experience and transition from busy streets to a quiet learning and social environment.
Long Beach City College, Student Center, Building GG
Programming, Architectural & Interior Design Services | Long Beach, CA
This two-story Student Services Center houses new General Classrooms, Enrollment and Student Services, Financial Aid, DSPS, Food Service, a Convenience Store, and a Health Clinic. Food Service consists of a full commercial kitchen, adjacent Indoor Dining room, a Staff Dining room, and a shaded outdoor dining area with a built in outdoor kitchen/barbecue. The existing building, which was adjacent to the campus’ main quad, has been demolished and the new building was constructed in the same area and has 30,850 gross square feet GSF (assigned 23,020 SF). The building is built around a courtyard that is designed as a student gathering area and for cueing lines during peak enrollment times of year. The main entry has an Atrium that connects various departments and provides daylighting to administrative and student spaces. Roesling Nakamura Terada Architects, Inc. (RNT) and Balfour Beatty comprised the design-build team leading this project that is LEED Silver certified.
City of Oxnard Development Services Center + South Oxnard Branch Library Master Plan | Oxnard, CA
The Civic Center Master Plan includes improvements and modernization to the existing City Hall a new Parking structure to the South, and a Library to the East that serves the Civic and Entertainment center Districts. The new Development Services Center is a result of the modernization of the Old Existing Library Structure that was abandoned for the new Library project. This was the first increment of a phased improvement and expansion master plan for the City of Oxnard Civic Center. The remodeled and new construction 36,000 SF Development Services Center serves as the public interface for the Civic Center as a whole and includes a 2-story Administration Center wing for the City Fire Department and Emergency Operations Center. The remainder of the building houses city staff office space for development services, city treasurer, permits and community development. The image desired by the client was to achieve unity of identity. As a result, the modernization and new building addition was designed to compliment the existing Civic Center Admin Building on the site.
Major Utility Client, Construction and Operations Center Facilities Master Plan | San Diego, CA
Major Utilities Client Head Quarters Tenant Improvement | San Diego, CA
RNT completed this 92,000 SF remodel of the entire facility’s interior spaces. All existing interior walls, ceilings and utilities were demolished with the exception of utility rooms. The resulting converted Class A office space provides the client with a desirable, vibrant work environment to help attract and retain talent. Work spaces consist of private offices, project rooms, conference rooms and focus rooms with cubicle areas broken down into smaller zones to manage scale. Wayfinding is aided by the use of distinct finishes to indicate separate neighborhood zones within the facility. A fitness center, full service dining room, large auditorium, break rooms and some informal meeting spaces are provided to enhance the work experience. The space was designed with flexibility in mind, making use of demountable partitions and ceilings that can be rearranged as the space utilization changes over time. Daylighting was maximized through open stairways and Solatubes, with work spaces arranged to provide everyone with direct daylight. The project is LEED Gold Certified for Commercial Interiors.
Roesling Nakamura Terada Architects, Inc. (RNT) was selected to evaluate and provide a growth scenario for this Utility Client Construction and Operations site. RNT performed due diligence, programming, design documentation, entitlement survey and coordination to develop a 20-year Facilities Master Plan (FMP) for a total site area of 19 acres. The overall planning study is comprised of three phases: an inventory phase, programming phase and a plan development phase. The proposed FMP maximizes safety by segregating operation vehicles from pedestrians and personal vehicles and creates a cohesive, sustainable and work-friendly campus environment while developing specific yet functional “work zones� on the site. The Plan utilizes the existing urban grid and an adjacent County Operations Center to inform and organize future development on the site as well as to strengthen the sites connection to the surrounding community. Additionally, passive solar design strategies are integrated in the Plan as a way to minimize energy costs and provide comfortable, enjoyable work environments that can also be developed for future growth.

Borrego Springs Library, Sheriff’s Office and Park Programming, Architectural Design & Construction Administration | Borrego Springs, CA
This fulfillment of the Borrego Springs community plan for a social and civic hub brings together residents and winter vacationers of Borrego
Springs alike. The design theme celebrates the unique environment and ecology of the desert, dark sky and star-gazing, and the vast history of this desert community. Our design goal is to create a fluid and comprehensive link between the Library and the Park to the Borrego Springs Community and Desert Environment. The project is designed to celebrate the social and cultural history of this community within its distinctive desert environmental setting. By embracing the environmental conditions, the proposed design incorporates inviting social plazas and gathering spaces, both interior and exterior, to be utilized by the community groups and visitors. In order to maximize the potential of these public programmatic spaces, these design elements act as hosts for educational opportunities by incorporating constellation mapping and references to local historical cultures that are easily accessible and viewable by the public. The goal is to provide a place for imagination and a campus of learning with many artful and dynamic educational displays and interpretive elements within the Library and Park environments.
Mountain Warfare Training Center Bridgeport Facilities Master Plan, CIP | Bridgeport, CA The Master Plan for MWTC Bridgeport illustrated land use concepts that allowed for future growth within the limited real estate assets at the Station.

Point Loma Naval Complex Master Plan, CIP and BEAP Master Plan | San Diego, CA
The Master Plan for Point Loma Naval Complex (PLNX) considered constraints and mission requirements for five unique Navy activities. Natural and man-made constraints were mapped and documented for the pristine natural environment to assist and guide a development opportunities. Specific planning objectives critical to PLNX included circulation pattern improvements, parking impact / requirements, security, and many other issues related to the long-range development of the complex. Environmental resources indigenous to Point Loma were documented in the plan, and natural habitats and endangered species were planned in the development concepts. The CIP was updated for each activity including Base Exterior Architecture and Infrastructure and Base Military Construction (BEAP) projects. Given the unique and varied types of operations at Point Loma Naval Complex, a BEAP was prepared that addressed design goals and guidelines specific to each activity.
Metropolitan Transit Development Board, Bus Rapid Transit Showcase Transit Station Design and Context Integration | San Diego, CA
The Metropolitan Transit Development Board (MTDB) for San Diego initiated a showcase project for the design of a Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system along Park Boulevard-El Cajon Boulevard corridor through the Mid-City-neighborhoods to Downtown San Diego. This pilot project was MTDB’s first attempt at establishing a BRT system within the San Diego region. Roesling Nakamura Terada Architects, Inc. (RNT) worked closely with MTDB and community stakeholders to develop the station prototypes into the Mid City specific sites. The basic components of the BRT system include: dedicated bus traffic lanes; “Smart Bus” technology, including signal priority and queue jumping; ongrade boarding, and ticket pre-purchasing. RNT provided prototype designs for the transit station shelters and integration plans for each site location.
The main design issue for the BRT system was to establish an adaptable prototype that makes a unique fit into a dynamic Mid-City context. Utilizing physical and digital prototyping, the stations were developed as a adaptable system to visually and functionally integrate into each site condition in Mid-City neighborhoods. The design also focused on user experience and provided various way finding and friendly ergonometric elements that communicate direction and arrival status of the BRTs. Each station was conceived as a distinct “place” within the varied and diverse series of site locations.
