If you're looking to celebrate by taking advantage of the warm weather in a beautiful setting, make sure to read this week's guest post at Inspired Design Daily on the Laguna Coast Wilderness Park and the Nix Nature Center, a great local resource with educational and engaging outdoor activities to provide a unique experience of the native Southern California landscape. The Center's contemporary and contextual design incorporates materials such as board-formed concrete, rammed earth, extensive glazing and cor-ten steel, to create a balance of space and experience and enhance a connection to place and the natural environment.
From the Nix Nature Center, located within the extended 20,000 acre South Coast Regional Wilderness area, visitors can enjoy the scenic vistas first-hand and learn about the preserve, which is home to a variety of threatened species and habitat restoration efforts in one of the last remaining coastal canyons in Southern California.
Experience the wilderness from this beautifully-designed building and make sure to take the opportunity to learn about local ecology, hike over 40 miles of trails, and explore the natural environment, protected and maintained by the Laguna Canyon Foundation.
