Integrated Land Design

Nice writeup on one of our most recent projects.

Adding a park around ‘54 Columns’ maximizes interest in the minimalist art This story was originally published by ArtsATL.

A beautiful celebration of life and community at yesterday. New features were publicly unveiled, including the new learning nook, soccer field and the Edgar Flores Memorial Ethnobotanical Garden, the first garden of its kind to be named for a Hispanic person in Georgia. The Flores family, as well as a huge presence from the Atlanta Police Department - including Police Chief Erika Shields and the Latino Mounted Unit - paid tribute to the life of this young officer who gave so much to our city in the short time he served before his untimely death. It was a truly moving event that served as a promise that Officer Flores will never be forgotten.

Great piece from WSB on the recently completed rain garden at Armand Park!

Volunteers create a rain garden to ease storm water run-off damage Watch Atlanta news videos from WSB-TV. The latest local news videos from the Atlanta Metro area. Sports, crime, and the latest entertainment.

The Armand Park Rain Garden is complete! ILD’s owner (designer of the park/garden), Patrick Hand, got his hands dirty at a recent planting event. There was a huge turnout with some neighbors even adding plants from their own yards! As a grand finale, the fire department released water for the inaugural “flood” into the garden. It was a great day for everyone involved!

Members of the community recently came together at Sara J. Gonzalez Memorial Park to build a community garden honoring Dekalb County Police Officer Édgar Isidro Flores who was killed in the line of duty in 2018. The Gonzalez family requested the community garden be named for Flores, “whose actions embodied the spirit of what Ms. Gonzalez stood for: community, service and heritage.”

Sara J. Gonzalez Memorial Park is the first park in Georgia to honor a Hispanic citizen and serves as a monument to her role as a pillar of Georgia’s Latin community. The park is centered around the elements of community, diversity, unity and family, which were at the core of Gonzalez’s work. Along with and community partners including , and Sara’s daughter, , we designed a park built for inclusive play and inspiration. With elements such as affirmations engraved in stone, a first-of-it’s-kind learning nook, an upcoming soccer field and the addition of an ethnobotanical memorial garden, the park furthers Gonzalez’s legacy of building community and enhancing the lives of those within it.
