site design of an industrial plant It was requested that the site should accommodate as many parking lots as possible and at the same time give a certain order, variety and seasonal interest in planting design. Entrance is the key feature of this site design. A couple of simple concrete walls make a modest gateway. The entrance is a big rotary surrounded by Metasequoia, colorful in autum to contrast the white of the building. At the center of the rotary is an oval. The oval with its simplicity and clarity mirrors the type of product, associated with elegance and geometry, produced at this industrial plant. The central corridor serves as a parking area with double rows of evergreen trees (Quercus myrsinaefolia). The back entrance is lined with cherry trees, a cheerful invitation in the spring time. The edge of the property, planted with local species, intends to become a band of woods that blend into the surrounding green mountains. Simple planting design is used to match the simplicity of the building: Rhododendron spp., Quercus myrsinaefolia, Metasequoia glyptostroboides, Abelia x grandiflora, Prunus yedoensis, and Sasa. © Landscape Design Co.
