The Dockweiler State Beach Youth Center is the first of three
facilities the Los Angeles County Department of Beaches and Harbors
plans to construct to house its W.A.T.E.R. (Water, Awareness,
Training, Education and Recreation) Program. Currently serving 5,000
inner city children ages 5-17 from the Marina del Rey neighborhood,
the W.A.T.E.R. Youth Program gives children the opportunity to take
aquatics classes, learn ocean skills and safety, marine life
education, and participate in other water activities. The new
facility includes a large multi-purpose meeting and training room,
administrative offices, a kitchen, a viewing terrace, restroom and
locker facilities, and equipment and vehicle storage. The center's
location also allows for orderly circulation of buses and cars,
resulting in the safe drop-off and pick-up of the children.

 Conceived as a physical extension of the surrounding Pacific Coast
environment, the Dockweiler State Beach Youth Center incorporates
characteristics of the immediate beach site and more distant
landscapes. Taking cues from the rich site, the folding roof forms
are held close to the down-sloping sand bank giving the illusion of
a textured landform becoming an extension of the sand itself. The
site is also defined by urban infrastructure areas including the
Hyperion Water Treatment Facility immediately across the street, the
Los Angeles International Airport to the north, an adjacent
concession stand, and a well-traveled bike route that marks the
northern edge of the site.
A straightforward building plan provides a linear public circulation
space anchored at the east by the front door and the west by a
view/events terrace; indoor and outdoor stairs lead down to the
beach. The main conference space occupies nearly the full length of
the south façade with commanding views toward the Palos Verdes
peninsula and Catalina Island. The lower level contains ample space
for vehicles, equipment storage, and maintenance.
The tile roof and plaster facades are a simple and relatively
neutral response to the "mission style" that has prevailed in past
beachfront projects. Utilizing this palette in a more contemporary
way satisfies challenges of visual continuity while also providing a
distinctly contemporary building.
The Youth Center was designed with a holistic approach to
environmental responsibility, resource efficiency, occupant comfort
and well being, and community sensitivity. Passive solar features
such as dramatic exterior overhangs shade the windows during the
summer months, insulated and translucent glazing that diffuses solar
heat gain and filters daylight, and a certified energy-efficient
cool roof tile that absorbs less heat thereby reducing the
building's cooling demand. The layout of the building locates
regularly occupied spaces such as meeting rooms and administrative
offices along the perimeter to take advantage of access to daylight,
views, and natural ventilation. In addition, many of the
construction materials and finishes specified contain high levels of
recycled content and many are manufactured regionally.
