Designing the landscape demands a deep understanding of nature and a generous concept of time. The firm Reed Hilderbrand is unsurpassed in its sensitivity to the land, peoples' activities, and the rich patterns that tie link them. Their projects include Harvard’s Arnold Arboretum; Boston's Christian Science Plaza; the grounds of the Phoenix Museum of Art; the Clark Institute master plan; and the landscape renovation to the Philip Johnson designed home on Strait Lane here in Dallas.
