Roofmeadow

Our Laura Hansplant was featured in today's Globe and Mail!

Check it out: West Philadelphia's Urban Thinkscape was profiled by the Smithsonian Magazine! Roofmeadow served as the Landscape Architect for this project, and our construction partner Roofmeadow Services Inc. put it together. Brilliant collaborators at Studio Ludo made it great and Sahar Coston-Hardy captured the stunning photos. Teamwork makes it fun! https://www.smithsonianmag.com//weaving-games-puzzles-int/

EXCEEDING INTENT: A Precedent Library is now available! The Sustainable Business Network of Greater Philadelphia’s (SBN) GSI Partners and the Delaware Valley Green Building Council (DVGBC), with team of leading industry professionals, have developed the following precedent library of exemplary GSI designs, systems, and approaches to inform the approval of more green and innovative stormwater management projects in Philadelphia. With greater understanding of how GSI performs,... performance metrics and calculation methods can be updated, designs can continue to improve, and there can be more comfort and confidence from the development community that GSI is an effective and affordable way to meet city regulations. The precedent library is a collection of highly effective GSI projects from urban areas across the country that have been selected for their ability to demonstrate the dynamic performance capacity of different types and classes of GSI practices, and their application at a range of project types and scales. Case studies discuss the degree to which these projects are exceeding their intents - environmentally, economically, and/or socially. This collection of case studies is complimented by peer-reviewed research that further defends the degree to which GSI performs. This library will be used to support the successful implementation of Green City, Clean Waters and to increase the industry’s collective knowledge on the performance of GSI.
