dc.descriptionMission: This project reimagines the Broken Sound Club golf course in Boca Raton, Florida, with a focus on ecologicalrestoration, water resilience, and sustainable design. The redesigned golf course will integrate native plantings, innovative water management strategies, and biodiversity-supporting features to create a functional, visually appealing, and environmentally responsible space. The project will balance the needs of golfers, the surrounding community, and the local ecosystem, demonstrating how a modern golf course can coexist harmoniously with nature. Goals: • Enhance Ecology: Replace non-native plants with low-maintenance natives to boost biodiversity and reduce upkeep. • Improve Water Resilience: Use bioswales, rain gardens, and ponds to manage runoff and improve water quality. • Community Engagement: Educate residents on sustainable landscaping through signage, gardens, and workshops. • Preserve Recreation: Maintain golf playability while enhancing aesthetics with ecological features. • Advance Sustainability: Use eco-friendly materials and minimize resource consumption for long-term efficiency. Objectives: • Enhance Biodiversity with Native Plants • Sustainable & Multifunctional Stormwater Systems • Balance Ecology & Golf Functionality • Community Engagement & Education • Create a Visually Stunning & Sustainable Golf Course
