The Villas and Casa Norte at Casa de Mañana
La Jolla, CA
SGPA completed two projects at Casa de Manana including Casa Norte, as an addition to Casa de Mañana in La Jolla, a historic oceanfront senior community and The Villas Project.
The 89,271 SF community space has been meticulously designed as a “public square,” serving as a hub for interaction within the independent facility. The concept seamlessly integrates high-activity areas, such as the beauty parlor, mail room, and activities office, all conveniently located in a central area to support the 39 one- and two-bedroom units.

The community lounge is a two-story space with connecting hallways leading to other public areas. A grand staircase has been elegantly incorporated around the elevator, enhancing both visual interest and opportunities for social engagement. The project incorporated an inclusive community feedback process, with a design to harmonize with the existing historic facility to offer greater opportunities for social interaction through the intensive integration of older building components.
