Landscape
Master Plans |
The Kauai Lagoons |
The preparation of
the landscape master plan by TC&M is a key part of the planning process. It describes
the landscape design of the entire development; identifies the various design precincts;
and proposes themes and design guidelines for the project in each area. |
|
Swimming
Pools |
| With
designs ranging from simple and elegant pools to multi-level fantasy attractions, TC&M
incorporates state-of-the-art concepts with unique solutions for each project. Amenities
such as spas, water slides, river rides and other features are carefully incorporated into
the overall design. |
| |
|
Water
Features |
| TC&M’s
water feature designs consider the aesthetic importance and photographic opportunities
together with the cost of operation and ease of maintenance. |
| |
|
Recreation
Facilities |
| TC&M’s
careful attention to all details and operational requirements insures that large tennis
court complexes or small game facilities fit into the overall design. |
| |
|
Grading and
Drainage |
| On all
projects, TC&M shapes the land to integrate the buildings and facilities with careful
planning and sensitivity. |
| |
|
Access and
Circulation |
| The
movement of people (in car or on foot) is carefully planned with the architecture and
interiors programs to create a seamless transition between the outdoor and indoor spaces.
Paving materials and hardscape finishes are selected for design quality, cost of
installation and ease of maintenance. |
| |
|
Planting and
Irrigation |
| The
plant material design compliments the hardscape elements to create an integrated landscape
architectural program. TC&M combines an extensive knowledge of plant materials with
local resources to select available and economical plant materials. |
| |
|
Landscape
Lighting |
| TC&M
carefully designs the landscape lighting concepts. Using efficient, economical and easy to
maintain fixtures with a small variety of lamps, TC&M creates unique and exciting
environments. |
| |
|
Creative
Direction |
| TC&M
added creative direction to its services several decades ago. During installation,
TC&M’s on-site services are important since landscape materials come in a variety
of often unpredictable shapes. |
| |
|
Project
Coordination |
| Many
landscape design elements involve the services and assistance of other consultants on the
project team. TC&M has developed simple and efficient methods for communicating the
requirements of the landscape program. TC&M’s design coordination services
continue throughout the project and are frequently acknowledged by clients and colleagues
as invaluable to the successful completion of the landscape architectural design. |
