Coen + Partners was honored with two awards from The American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) in May, 2009. The first in the General Design category, is Westminster Presbyterian Church Fellowship Courtyard and Memorial Columbarium, a space of quiet beauty which embraces the urban context and encourages a greater shift in public thought as it relates to death and burial ritual in American society. The second in the Residential Design category, is the Speckman House Landscape, a comprehensive site redesign for an existing modernist house, designed in 1956 by a University of Minnesota architecture professor.
The jury considered nearly 600 entries—the largest number in ASLA history—from around the world and selected 49 projects for recognition in general design, residential design, analysis and planning, communications and research. The awards ceremony will take place at the ASLA Annual Meeting in Chicago on September 21.
