"SIGN, SIGN, EVERYWHERE A SIGN BLOCKIN' OUT THE SCENERY, BREAKIN' MY MIND. DO THIS, DON'T DO THAT, CAN'T YOU READ THE SIGN?"
Yes, it's true about signs, but they can also be visually interesting and a creative property marker.

TRI CITIES REGIONAL AIRPORT
After two years of construction, the Tri-Cities Regional Airport has dedicated its newly renovated terminal entrance. We’ve lowered an existing parking lot eight feet to the level of the terminal building and eliminated the canyon effect drive. Reshaping the parking lot created opportunities for a large linear green space with a plaza, extensive landscape plantings, decorative paving and a 350 foot sculptural boulder wall.

The promenade adjacent to the terminal building has been enlarged and enhanced with decorative paving, planters, boulders, landscape areas, seat walls, site furnishings and new lighting. The goal was to create a more functional, safe and aesthetically pleasing arrival and departure space for Tri-Cities Regional air travelers with a landscape to present the beauty of Tennessee.

When you’re traveling through, please enjoy the new environment Tri-Cities Regional has provided for you.

ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN

“environmentally friendly, functionally efficient, aesthetically unique and cost effective”

Over the years, Michael Versen & Associates has focused on designing with nature. Good site design begins with respecting the land’s natural features of topography, vegetation and other physical characteristics and continues with “green and sustainable” landscape architectural techniques. These techniques reduce reflective heat emission of construction, cleanse and dissipate runoff water, address site construction erosion and enrich the aesthetics.

Healing gardens offer the opportunity to physically, mentally and spiritually enhance the lives of the health care residents and guests. Beautiful and functionally designed social gathering spaces, restorative therapy gardens and safe life enriching Alzheimer garden spaces prove a place to continue the interaction with the natural world and fellow human beings.
Over the years I’ve had to opportunity to design numerous Independent, Assisted, Skilled and Alzheimer healthcare campuses throughout the United States. Visiting and seeing these gardens in use has given me a great sense of personal satisfaction and contribution.
