Getty Villa

---

Project Description

Since it first opened to the public in 1974, the Getty Villa has served as home to an impressive collection of art and antiquities. In this major renovation and expansion, the J. Paul Getty Trust increased visitor facilities and renovated its museum devoted to antiquities to serve as a center for the study of ancient art, archeology and conservation. The project included the renovation of the existing villa (inspired by the the Villa of the Papyri at Herculaneum), ranch house, and conservation laboratory buildings, while nine new structures were built: a cafe, auditorium, an entry court, a central plant, two parking structures, a two-story research facility, a two-story office building and a one-story laboratory building.

Scope of Work

Preconstruction and construction services for 460,000 SF campus renovation and expansion designed by Machado & Silvetti Associates, including renovation of original 1973 museum building and 1915 ranch house.
