Project Statement: Set in a wooded, 7 acre site above Cedar Creek Lake, this series of buildings are weaved discreetly below the tree line and take advantage of commanding views of the surrounding lake. The collaborative effort between design team and client transformed a long-held family property at into a legacy weekend destination where the harmony between built structure and site results in a completed project that feels as if it has been in situ for years. This master plan addressed the project from the street to the lake in helping to site the house, pavilion, tennis court, and large garage barn amongst a high canopy of existing loblolly pine trees and live oaks.

Project Statement: The Walker Art Center is one of the nation's top contemporary art institutions. The new Wurtele Upper Garden is a part of a larger vision to re-orient the main entry of the museum, strengthen the relationship with the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden, and create a Walker Art Center campus. The vegetated volumes and the circuit path that connects them enhance the welcoming entry approach and provide dynamic experiences for engaging art. The re-imagined garden provides flexible, impromptu programming to accommodate large-scale public events. The garden reinforces the Walker Art Center's status as an artistic and social hub.
Kronish House, designed by Marmol Radziner, in Beverly Hills, CA. 2016 ASLA Honor Award, Residential Design. #LandscapeArchitecture #ASLAawards

Project Statement: Built in 1954 for a real estate developer and his family, the Kronish House is one of only three Neutra-designed homes ever built in the City of Beverly Hills, and the only one that survives intact. By 2011, the house and landscape had suffered from years of modifications and neglect. Our client purchased the property with the intention of restoring the home and gardens. Throughout the restoration, our team of architects and landscape architects referenced Julius Shulman’s historic photos of the house interiors, façade, and landscape to remove non-original components and restore spaces as Neutra had envisioned. An array of unique plantings transformed an abandoned and overgrown site into a lush oasis for urban wildlife and now showcases the diversity of plant life available to gardens in Southern California.
