Complete Project Overview
On a 20-acre stretch in Austin, we turned corporate turf into a campus that invites walking. Our landscape design and irrigation plan focused on native species, layered planting, and efficient emitters. Ten months of testing soil, mapping slopes, and refining zones cut water demand dramatically. As a result, irrigation needs dropped 30%, maintenance eased, and employees found a quieter, greener place to think during breaks.
Here’s Why They Called Us!
InnovateTech wanted a campus that looked good but was also easy to maintain. They needed a team that could design smart green spaces, save water, and make outdoor areas enjoyable for employees without adding extra costs.
Challenges Faced By The Team
Working on a 20-acre campus sounds simple, but it came with its own hurdles. The biggest issue was water. Austin’s hot summers meant we had to design landscapes that stayed green without draining resources. Soil conditions were uneven as well. Some areas held water, while others dried out fast. Mapping irrigation zones became tricky. At the same time, the client wanted plenty of shaded walkways, but tree placement had to avoid underground utilities. Coordinating with construction teams meant constant adjustments. Even weather delays slowed planting schedules. Instead of letting problems pile up, our team tested soil, adjusted irrigation plans, and refined layouts until everything worked together. Each challenge shaped a smarter, more sustainable landscape design for InnovateTech’s campus.
