"Playground, recreational, and educational improvements for a school community open space connecting two neighborhoods"
Project Overview
Carrington School Learning Park represents a groundbreaking approach to community park design, emphasizing ecological restoration while creating dynamic spaces for multigenerational use. The 15-acre site was transformed from a deteriorating landscape into a model of sustainable design that serves as both a recreational destination and an educational resource for environmental stewardship.
Our design philosophy centered on working with the existing topography and native ecosystems, minimizing disturbance while maximizing community benefit. The project demonstrates how landscape architecture can address both social and environmental challenges through thoughtful, evidence-based design.
