Dallas, Texas |
| Landscape Architect: | Boyd Heiderich Bargas Gilson, Inc. |
| Architect:: | James E. Langford, Architects and Planners |
| Completion: | Summer 2002 |
| The landscape is an extension
of the simple, geometric forms expressed by the architect in the new
Chapel and surrounding hardscapes. A grid of Red Oaks on both east and
west sides of the building expresses the lines and angles of the surrounding
walkways. In order to conceal the large banks of mechanical equipment,
extensive pits were dug and retained by stone walls. A double row of
shrubs were planted along the rim of the pits to further conceal the
equipment. The ground was planted in Bermuda grass, keeping the transition
from landscape to building clean and simple. |
