Pfizer Global Research & Development Center – Torrey Pines Science Park

Year
2007

A leader in biotechnology development engaged Delawie to master-plan a six-building campus at the Torrey Pines Science Park in La Jolla, California. 

Working closely with Design Architect Zimmer Gunsul Frasca Partnership, the challenge was to create a highly collaborative environment to house over 1,200 employees of Pfizer’s Research & Development Center.

The outer façade integrates metal panels, charcoal slate, and high-performance glass in alternating configurations, establishing a visual theme across structures of diverse shapes. While the buildings share numerous features, each possesses a distinct signature element and unique individual identity.
