Green Roofs, Green Design
The serpentine walkways reflect the meandering Mississippi River while the terrace paving and plantings are inspired by the agrarian and historic development patterns throughout the region. SED design has been designing and over seeing the implementation of Green Roofs for over eight years. Green roofs are one of many Best Management Practices (BMP's) and Low Impact Design (LID) strategies for which SED design is known. SED design's integrate GREEN strategies in creative and memorable ways. Available Links: Sustainable Wetland Garden
