Terrace at Central Michel Richard – restaurant at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas

Tuesday, January 24th, 2012

The new terrace at the entrance to Caesars Palace, Las Vegas, NV

Tournesol Siteworks was part of one of the hottest tickets in Las Vegas last fall when renowned Washington DC chef Michel Richard opened his newest eatery, Central Michel Richard at Caesars Palace. The restaurant was named to several “Top 10″ lists within months of opening. Landscape architect Chris Attanasio designed the outdoor terrace using our Wilshire Collection rectangles to create the terrace space, and Downtown Collection as focal planters.

Downtown and Wilshire Collection planters, The Clark Hotel, Los Angeles

We recently worked with Syntax Builders on the pool deck of the Clark Hotel. This historic hotel in the heart of downtown L.A. was built in 1913, and known for most of its years as the Hotel Clark. The current owners are adding a pool and lounge area, and reopening the building as a 350-room hotel.

When we received the call from Coconut Grove, a interiorscaper and landscape contractor near Vancouver, the clock was already ticking. Their client, the Westin Bayshore in Vancouver, wanted to update the public areas of the hotel before the Olympic parade rolled into town.  Unfortunately, there simply wasn’t enough time to pull together the material they wanted for the order.

The Highline – NYC: Our product is the important one you’ll never see!

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

The trees at the 10th Ave. Plaza are all in Tournesol Siteworks liners

When we were first contacted to assist with the liners for the Highline in New York, we knew immediately that it was going to be a big deal. For those not familiar with it, a stretch of abandoned elevated railroad track running through the meatpacking district in NYC was converted into an elevated park. You can find a variety of images here.  Very cool.  And, very newsworthy – it has gotten more hype and publicity than nearly any other project we’ve been associated with.  Too bad, then, that no one will ever see the product that we made for it!
