Green Spaces Integration

This project focused on creating a series of green spaces for a building situated in a vibrant, emerging neighborhood in Brooklyn. Surrounded by a mix of residential buildings, the goal was to design a modern, sustainable environment that balances functionality with visual appeal. The client’s objective was to maximize the potential of the space within the budget, ensuring every element delivered value while remaining cost-effective.

I was deeply involved in every phase of this project, from conceptual design and project management to overseeing construction and ensuring the final details, including plant selection, placement and ongoing maintenance, were executed to perfection.
