ECO-MODERN HOTEL
POOL & PATIO DESIGN
The planting design and particular areas of the project were taken into account while selecting plants and ground covers and trees due to the fact that this hotel would show off the planting design on regular basis to its guest. The appropriate and enjoyable plants were selected for the pool and patio area. Barrier and screening plants were used in a more spread out style on the perimeter closer to the road.A mix of existing and new tree were used to provide a well rounded design that meet the requirements for tree canopy coverage.
These were the critical design elements included on the project:
1. Ordinance Compliance Calculations to meet City Code requirements plus additional points for Elective Landscaping.
2. Standard planting details for trees & shrubs.
3. Plant Schedule consisting of required plants plus additional shrubs and trees to enhance the site with color and texture.
4. Required Calculations for Tree Canopy Cover to satisfy the existing and proposed tree amounts onsite.
5. Areas of enhanced landscape beds, ground cover and tree density that go above and beyond minimum requirements.
6. General Notes, Construction Notes and Specifications to clarify construction practices for the General Contractor.
