Located in Laguna Hills, Reata is designed in a “Spanish Revival” style, taking influence from Southern California’s historical architecture. The project is the centerpiece of the city’s Urban Village Specific Plan and fundamental to the design is the connection of pedestrian access to the neighboring Oakbrook Village Shopping Center. The project includes a 10,000 square-foot space called the Village Green; aiming to provide a vibrant, pedestrian-oriented atmosphere. The retail awnings and storefronts along the ground level are designed to help reduce the scale of the building along the pedestrian frontages, while allowing for views into public areas of the building. The tower elements anchor key corners and cantilevered balconies provide relief and texture, working to further break down the scale of the massing. The project has 289 dwelling units consisting of 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom units; each featuring private balconies and decks looking outward over the densely landscaped site or over one of the four courtyards.
