RALEIGHWOOD

An incredibly fun project on a unique site. Our clients purchased five adjacent suburban lots, the lower four being a mix of creek and wetland, wooded hills and open meadow. We designed a low-impact sequence of spaces - including nature play and sports field - all connected by pathways through wetlands and woods, letting the natural surroundings do their thing.

An elevated cedar boardwalk and bridges made from on-site split fir trees allow access to the entire property, even during the wettest months when the meadow is flooded, and minimizes disturbance to the established ecosystem.
