Travelers in the know say Atlanta’s best-kept secret is the luxury hotel found in a prestigious area of Atlanta, known as Buckhead.
Showcasing a 42-story tower, this premier destination whispers sophistication and welcomes weary travelers needing a break from the big-city hustle and bustle. It’s hard to judge which feature is most memorable to guests. Is it the regal architecture? The unmatched elegance? Perhaps it’s the little things like waves of natural light warming the interior spaces, or the Southern hospitality warming guests up for their “urban escape.”
Challenges
There’s no question the most critical challenge facing our landscape crew on this property is meeting the lavish standards of a world-renowned luxury hotel brand. Related to standards is the goal of aligning the landscaping with the brand’s distinctive aesthetic while incorporating local Atlanta elements.
Another obstacle is the limited outdoor space, which can hinder plant selection and creativity. And there are climate concerns. The Atlanta area is known as a very humid location, similar to much of the South. Plus, there’s an added worry of the heat-island effect that comes with large metros and a garden space surrounded by neighboring buildings’ glass and steel.
Last but not least, there are functionality considerations. People outside the landscaping industry may not realize all the functions available through various landscape elements. On this property, each element must be world-class visually but still serve a specific purpose in the limited space. That need is elevated due to privacy concerns of many high-profile guests who choose this getaway when visiting Atlanta.
