Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars

 

Challenge

Create a modern and interesting design that would not compete with the iconic vineyards and stunning landscape of the Napa Valley.

 

Solution

  • Make the site more cohesive by using residual rocks and soils to create an intentional but natural graded transition from parking to the building promontory level
  • Design new areas that visually integrate the overall site with a focus on native plants
  • Use grasses that offer a simple and minimal palette and provide seasonality, growing and flowering in the spring and receding into the background when cut back in the fall

 

Special Features

  • Grasses provide solid yet ephemeral visual theme for the site
  • Native shrubs provide natural bird habitat and screen the wine production facility
  • Simple design can be maintained by winery personnel without specialized landscaping team
