Project Description

A historic outdoor space with a modern landscape design

Texas A&M University began a total overhaul of the roughly 23-acre site composed of The Corps Halls and their adjacent open spaces in 2015. KW’s extent of services consisted of landscape lighting design, irrigation and softscape. The hardscape design included 95,000 sf of pavers, retaining walls, ramps and stairs. Native and adaptive planting were utilized in the softscape. 670 gallon (9”-10” caliper) live oak trees were installed and custom grown for KW. Landscape furnishings consisted of: benches, trash receptacles, monument locations and bike racks.
