Landscape Design Workshop wins 2021 Architecture MasterPrize™ Award
(City of Weston – November 5, 2021) Landscape Design Workshop has won a 2021 Architecture MasterPrize™ Design Award in the Landscape Architecture / Outdoor Designs category for their Botaniko project.
Botaniko is a new residential development located on a 120-acre former golf course in the community of Weston, Florida. Just half-a-mile from Everglades National Park, it was designed as an ecotone where the Everglades biome and a suburban community merge. Surrounded by narrow waterways, this underutilized site was polluted by arsenic-laden herbicides and required intensive remediation. An alternative to a highly manicured landscape, Botaniko offers a model for increasing native biodiversity and for balancing development with environmental concerns.
Botaniko uses native landscaping to integrate with natural habitat.
