The Dallas Urban Reserve by Kevin Sloan, ASLA, M.Arch of Kevin Sloan Studio, with Robert Meckfessel, FAIA, DSGN Associates

Internationally recognized as an “innovative green project,” the award-winning Urban Reserve transformed a 10-acre site that had been an illegal landfill for more than 50 years into an exquisite Modernist community. In 2004, Urban Edge Developers in Dallas purchased the tract to construct a sustainable community, engaging landscape architect Kevin Sloan Studio and architects including Tod Williams and Billie Tsien. The refined aesthetics and careful grooming are equaled by environmentally sensitive details: the main street is a continuous biofilter; storm water is conveyed into rain gardens, separated by parking; cypress and reed plants filter water to sedimentation ponds for low-velocity drip irrigation. Concrete fragments and steel beams left over from its previous use as a landfill have been repurposed as “bricolage” for pavements and terraces. As part of the Dialogue, attendees will visit the landscapes of several private residences.

Room & BoardThese one-of-a-kind mirrors are made from solid pecan wood slabs reclaimed from the Twinsburg Chrysler stamping plant in Ohio. The slabs made up the flooring that supported giant stamping machines, which turned out parts for vehicles ranging from Dodge® Chargers to Jeeps®. Each board has a story that’s told through unique marks, color variations and knots that reflect its past use. By reclaiming the wood, we are honoring the natural resource, keeping it out of landfills and giving it new life in your home.

Scott Simpson Design + BuildThe landscaping incorporates native plants and a rain garden swale to optimize stormwater management on the property – and for the community - while promoting pollinator-friendly habitats. The synthetic roofing, designed to resemble the appearance of cedar shakes, is actually recycled plastic and the roof hosts solar panels as well.
The cedar siding is composed of small pieces of clear cedar that would normally just be put in a landfill. This siding is beveled and also finger-jointed to last a very, very long time. The trim material is made similarly from reused material.
