Griffin Towers - Santa Ana , CA

Owner
Griffin/Related Properties and Ahmanson Commercial Development

Architect
Nadel Partnership

Scope
The lighting program for the two 12-story office buildings is designed to give the building a presence when viewed up close and from a distance. The fluorescent fixtures in the recessed coffers at the top of the building light the openings and enhance the architecture, from a distance they can be seen as a pattern of the skyline. The design for the motor court and fountain provide an intimate pedestrian environment after dark.
