As former principals of their own firms both Wayne Kelly and Steven Fuhrman draw from a strong ?EUR??,,????'??design-oriented?EUR??,,????'?? and ?EUR??,,????'??user responsive?EUR??,,????'?? background which covers a variety of public and private projects. Their clients include public agencies, private corporations, real estate developers, parks and recreation departments, school districts, land planners, environmental consultants, architects, and engineers. The philosophy of Land Architecture Inc. is: Drawn by Innovation. It recognizes that people exist within built environments and the design quality of these environments affects how we see ourselves as part of ?EUR??,,????'??nature.?EUR??,,????'?? Aesthetics are a necessary component of environmentalism.Photos courtesy of Land Architecture, Inc.9
This new 14-acre shopping center design included all landscape and hardscape areas, including four individual plazas. The main plaza is the terminus of the promenade through the adjacent Community Park from the surrounding neighborhoods. The shopping center is pedestrian friendly in hopes of encouraging people enjoying the park, and the nearby residents to walk to the center.
Design solutions for this 5-acre neighborhood park include: a cleverly disguised well site to look like a residence and the incorporation of a low impact water attraction and streambed. The site also included group picnic structures, open turf area and a play mound. The field area was ?EUR??,,????'??depressed?EUR??,,????'?? by using mounds to discourage errant balls from leaving the field and allow for spectator seating.
This upscale community uses reclaimed water for irrigation of the 200-acre, 18-hole championship golf course as well as the seven miles of streetscapes, 1,000 acres of natural open space, creeks, oak groves, greenbelts and trail corridors. Preliminary site development packages were developed for the Village Green as well as construction documents for the Clubhouse, streetscapes, Village entries, and park sites. 50,000 new trees have been planted.
