Commercial Landscape Construction

The Populus Hotel is a landmark project in downtown Denver, designed with sustainability as a central focus. This commitment extended to the landscape design, which incorporated advanced green infrastructure solutions.

Sustainable Landscape Design

A key feature of this project was the integration of Silva Cells—an underground modular system that promotes healthy tree growth in urban environments. These cells create a cavernous space beneath sidewalks and roadways, allowing for extensive root expansion without compromising surface integrity.

Environmental Impact & Innovation

The use of Silva Cells demonstrates a forward-thinking approach to urban landscaping, enhancing tree health while supporting sustainable development practices. This system helps manage stormwater, reduces soil compaction, and extends the lifespan of city trees.

Key Outcomes

  • Innovative use of Silva Cells for urban tree growth.
  • Sustainable landscape solutions aligned with the project's environmental goals.
  • Enhanced urban environment with long-term ecological benefits.
