 Meier has exploited the two naturally-occurring ridges (which diverge at a 22.5 degree angle) by overlaying two grids along these axes.
Getty Center 
 These grids serve to define the space of the campus while dividing the import of the buildings on it.
Getty Center 
 The main north-south axis starts with the helipad, then includes a narrow walkway between the auditorium and north buildings.
Getty Center 
 The axis goes through the rotunda, past the walls and support columns of the exhibitions pavilion, and finally the ramp besides the west pavilion and the central garden.
Getty Center 
 Its corresponding east-west visual axis starts with the edge of the scholar's wing of the Getty Research Institute (GRI), the walkway between the central garden and the GRI, and the overlook to the azalea pool in the central garden.
Getty Center 
 The east-west axis then follows the walkway between the central garden and the west pavilion, and finally the north wall of the west pavilion and the courtyard between the south and east pavilions.
Getty Center 
 The main axes of the museum grid that is offset by 22.5 degrees begins with the arrival plaza, carries through the edge of the stairs up to the main entrance, aligns with the columns supporting the rotunda as well as the center point of the rotunda, aligns with travertine benches in the courtyard between the pavilions, includes a narrow walkway between the west and south pavilions, a staircase down to the cactus garden and ends in the garden.
Getty Center 
 The corresponding cross axis starts with the center point of the circle forming the GRI library garden, then passing to the center of the entrance rotunda, and aligning with the south wall of the rotunda building.
Getty Center 
 Although all of the museum is aligned on these alternative axes, portions of the exhibitions pavilion and the east pavilion are aligned on the true north-south axis as a reminder that both grids are present in the campus.
Getty Center 
 The primary grid structure is a  square; most wall and floor elements are  squares or some derivative thereof.
Getty Center 
 The buildings at the Getty Center are made from concrete and steel with either travertine or aluminium cladding.
Getty Center 
 The initial design has remained intact; however benches and fences have been installed around the plaza fountains to discourage visitors from wading into the pools.

Getty Center 
 The hillside around the complex has been planted with California Live Oak (Quercus agrifolia) trees.
Getty Center 
 At the bottom of the hill, the museum has a seven-story deep underground visitor parking garage with over 1,200 parking spaces.
Getty Center 
 An automated three-car, cable-pulled tram takes passengers between the parking garage at the bottom of the hill and the museum at the top of the hill.
Getty Center 
 Visitors typically arrive at a tram station in the arrival plaza between the administrative buildings and the museum entrance.
Getty Center

Getty Center 
 The museum building has a three-level base building that is closed to the public and provides staff workspace and storage areas.
Getty Center 
 Five public, two-story towers on the base are called the North, East, South, West and the Exhibitions Pavilions.
Getty Center 
 The Exhibitions Pavilion acts as the temporary residence for traveling art collections and the Foundation's artwork for which the permanent pavilions have no room.
Getty Center 
 The permanent collection is displayed throughout the other four pavilions chronologically: the north houses the oldest art while the west houses the newest.
Getty Center 
 The first-floor galleries in each pavilion house light-sensitive art, such as illuminated manuscripts, furniture, or photography.
Getty Center 
 Computer-controlled skylights on the second-floor galleries allow paintings to be displayed in natural light.
Getty Center 
 Sculpture is also on display at various points outside the buildings, including on various terraces and balconies.
Getty Center 
 The lower level (the highest of the floors in the base) includes a public cafeteria, the terrace cafe, and the photography galleries.
Getty Center 
 Planning for the garden began in 1992, construction started in 1996, and the garden was completed in December 1997.

 Irwin was quoted as saying that the Central Garden "is a sculpture in the form of a garden, which aims to be art."
Getty Center 
 A fountain near the restaurant flows toward the garden and appears to fall into a grotto on the north garden wall.
Getty Center 
 The designers placed rocks and boulders of varying size in the stream bed to vary the sounds from the flowing water.
Getty Center 
 A tree-lined stream descends to a plaza, while the walkway criss-crosses the stream, which continues through the plaza, and goes over a stone waterfall into a round pool.
Getty Center 
 More than 500 varieties of plant material are used for the Central Garden, but the selection is "always changing, never twice the same".
