HED completes Drawbridge Realty Via Del Campo II Scientific Workplace and R&D Facility in San Diego, CA
HED and Drawbridge Realty have completed the 16705 Via Del Campo Ct. in Rancho Bernardo.
HED led the architectural and interior design of this three-story, Class A scientific workplace, office, and R&D facility, performing the master planning, schematic design, substantial conformity review, design development and construction documentation and administration, collaborating with Wiseman and Rohy (Structural Engineer), H+W Engineers (Mechanical & Plumbing Engineer) and Ridge Landscape Architect (Landscape Architect).
The 81,130 total SF facility contains spaces for office, R&D manufacturing, and laboratory functions. The building height creates a 16' floor-to-floor height required for flexibility in the potential R&D manufacturing and laboratory functions as well as enabling for 11’ clear height ceilings and glass throughout. This allows natural light deep into building for greater user wellness and a more airy and comfortable feel. The 125 PSF floor loading supports a variety of R&D equipment and uses. The tilt-up building features stone/metal accent panels and accent glass curtain wall exterior for a modern aesthetic inline with the surroundings, as well as outdoor site amenities contained on the surrounding 4 acres of site for campus users.

San Francisco-based Drawbridge began construction without pre-leasing in March 2022. However, thanks to the scientific workplace design features for flexibility and functionality, before construction was even complete, Netherlands-based semiconductor manufacturer ASML agreed to lease two full floors totaling 55,227 SF.
