After posing the idea of a La Jolla resort show to Vuitton, Ghesquière returned with a team to scout the Salk at golden hour. “The sun was going down and there was a dryness but also a mist, and the surfers were coming out in the ocean below the cliff. All of it was so inspiring in its serenity, and it was a place with so much meaning,” he said. “I knew I could work with it.”
Constructed of poured-in-place “pozzolanic” concrete, the structures have a pinkish cast that changes with the sunlight throughout the day. With windows flooding the interior with light, all the labs are open to allow for collaboration on the institute’s work on finding cures for everything from cancer to Alzheimer’s disease.
“California has always been very visionary with healing, therapy and wellness and the landscape from the coast to the desert, which is not that far. It’s a rich proposition on which to meditate,” he said. On a more conceptual note, Ghesquière ended with a trio of sculpted boleros resembling kites, ready to take flight over the cliff.
“I want people to appreciate the uniqueness and beauty of the building and I want them to think about the science going on here. We study all the basic problems in biology, the complete spectrum, from computational neuroscience, to cancer to neurodegenerative disease to plant biology, we try to do it all in a small space.
