Coleman & Associates provided landscape architecture services for the new Texas A&M Fort Worth Law & Education Building, located in downtown Fort Worth. The landscape design creates a series of functional and inviting outdoor spaces that extend from the ground-level streetscape to multiple roof terraces throughout the building. At street level, trees, planters, benches, and bicycle racks enhance the pedestrian experience and contribute to a welcoming urban campus environment. The upper-level terraces incorporate a variety of outdoor furnishings and large-scale planters to create comfortable spaces for gathering, studying, dining, and informal interaction. A mix of lounge, café, and bar-height seating provides flexibility while taking advantage of views across downtown Fort Worth. Together, the streetscape and roof terraces extend the building’s educational environment outdoors and provide students, faculty, and visitors with accessible spaces to gather, connect, and enjoy the surrounding city.
