Chicago Botanical
Botanical Park Our contribution to this major landscaping project on the Evening Island site was the creation of two pavilions, a comfort station and a maintenance facility, that integrate seamlessly with the surrounding gardens. Above all, the facilities are designed to be functional yet inconspicuous, so as not to detract from the gardens themselves.
