Another true horizontal plane, this one has a skimming surface of water through bubbler fountains that draw you in. The water coming through the spouts manages to hold a very tight bubble shape; the tension of the surface is riveting, but you have to get wet to get close!

The paving at the entry to the Plaza tower by Peter Walker's firm, note the minimalist design with form and space influenced by the ground. Donald Judd's a big part of the ideas behind this part!

These last photos show the gazebo installed over the hot tub to provide shelter and privacy. This product is from www.whitepavilion.co.uk and is a clever mix of timber, stainless steel and PVC canvas to create this fantastic gazebo. The garden was designed by www.postalgardendesign.co.uk and built by www.wyldldandscapes.co.uk.

Here's the front yard garden we built, now shown a month later - planted with: lettuce, pak choi, bok choi, turnips, beets, carrots, peas and beans; and with transplanted strawberries and rhubarb. Notice the pea and bean frames made from bamboo cut elsewhere on the property,

These photos show the construction of the garden using vertical round timber poles set in concrete to create the visible retaining walls. Sleepers provided the steps and hidden retaining walls. A significant repair tothe existing fence had to be done as the tree surgeons who initially installed the fence really did not have a clue how to build a fence! Tree stumps were also a factor as the garden had several trees removed prior to this work being carried out. The design for the garden was done by www.postalgardendesign.co.uk and the build was carried out by www.wyldlandscapes.co.uk.

These photos show the finished garden after the terracing work is complete. After the retaining walls were constructed, the ground was raised to the new levels with topsoil and a new lawn laid. A large deck at the lower end of the garden provides an ample entertaining area and raisning the shed also allows easy access. A small amount of planting along the left side adds to the interest without creating too much maintenance.

LUC was responsible for public realm and landscape design for 500 bed student housing development in the Partick area of Glasgow’s West End. LUC deployed a clear hierarchy to the design proposals creating a series of interconnecting primary and secondary spaces. The primary spaces deployed a distinctive paving pattern that was inspired by the rich textures of wheatfields, a nod to the area’s bread mill heritage.

US Mission Geneva “Goes Native” With Planting of Geneva Prairie Grasses

 

Joins Geneva biodiversity collaboration by planting grounds with special indigenous seed mix

 

On April 20, 2011, the United States Mission to the United Nations in Geneva celebrated its signature of Geneva’s Garden Charter (Charte des Jardins) with a seed sowing ceremony beginning the conversion of the lawns surrounding our building to meadows of flowering prairie grasses indigenous to the Geneva region.

 

The conversion from lawn to prairie meadow marks the first major step in implementation of an ambitious multi-year sustainable landscape project to transform the Mission’s grounds into a series of local ecosystems that will support local flora and fauna and connect us with the larger Geneva environment.

 

In signing the Garden Charter, a collaborative project among Swiss Cantons, the U.S. Mission assumes a commitment to organize our land in a way that enables the survival of wildlife. This includes not using biocides, planting grasses instead of lawns, and leaving havens for small animals such as heaps of stones, or piles of branches. The Garden Charter plaque with its symbolic hedgehog will stand at our main entrance next to the Certified Wildlife Habitat sign awarded in 2009 when the Mission became the first State Department facility certified by the U.S. National Wildlife Federation.

 

Based on the “Melange-Geneve” blend of Geneva wildflower and grass species developed by the Canton of Geneva’s Conservation office, the Mission’s new meadow will increase local biodiversity, while also curbing water use and carbon emissions and reducing maintenance costs.

 

“We expect that over time the expanse of prairie grasses will become home to a host of regional flora and fauna,” said Ambassador Betty E. King, U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations and Other International Organizations in Geneva. “By virtue of our close proximity to other green spaces, we will be able to contribute our meadow to a chain – including gardens at international organizations and other diplomatic Missions nearby –forming a green corridor of hospitable terrain for the likes of birds, hedgehogs, butterflies, and rodents. Being a good neighbor in Geneva also means being a good neighbor to the diverse species, large and small, in our shared environment.”

 

The Melange-Geneve features flowering wild grasses including Salvia pratensis (Meadow Sage) with its vertical stalks of purple and blue flowers, and the white flowered umbrels of the Caraway (Carum carvi) or Medidian Fennel. The meadow will expand the habitat for Geneva animal and insect species including butterflies such as the Old World Swallowtail (Papilio machaon), many species of birds, and of course the Garden Charter mascot, the hedgehogs, which feeds on the seeds of the plants.

 

“Choosing to plant prairie grasses rather than a cultivated lawn helps to rebuild biodiversity literally from the ground up,” said Bertrand von Arx, Nature Conservationist for the Canton of Geneva. “I’m pleased to see that Geneva’s biodiversity corridors are taking root in international Geneva as well. Projects like this one help to rebuild food chains. That in turn has an expanded impact beyond each individual garden’s walls. Adding native grasses to your garden favors the diversity of plants and animals and can even contribute to preserving our rarest and most endangered species.”
