Our first project at Cal Poly SLO. This site was a former lawn which drained right into the adjacent buildings. Our design created several levels of dry creekbed swales designed to intercept runoff and allow it to infiltrate and stay out of the buildings. Larger flows were directed to a larger basin draining to a series of infiltration planters designed by the university as an ADA ramp, swales, and finally a storm drain if anything is left. The University wanted year-round color and interesting forms. I'm happy to say it's quite colorful and lively in November, and will be equally lovely in spring. J.D. Humann installed the landscape, and it's being wonderfully maintained by CPSLO staff.
