The landscape vision for the Frank Gehry--designed Stata Center at MIT was a "New England landscape" emphasizing its glacial origins, incorporating landforms such as drumlins and outwash basins. Stormwater solutions were integrated into the landforms as well as the building infrastructure to achieve the goal of managing stormwater while providing an extraordinary opportunity for promoting sustainable site design. The Stata site design team worked in strong multi-disciplinary collaboration with MIT to produce creative strategies that achieve a successful balance of technical, regulatory, environmental, and aesthetic objectives.
