Monograph on Raymond Jungles, a contemporary landscape architect
based in Miami known for innovative but timeless design and a
commitment to ethical stewardship of the land. For almost 40 years,
Raymond Jungles has generated design solutions that respond to
surrounding natural systems while restoring nature's balance and
harmony on a micro-scale. His completed gardens personify
timelessness and beauty, with verdant spaces that entice
participation and soothe the psyche. This monograph, the fourth to
focus on his work, will present 21 completed projects, along with a
section of work in progress featuring sketches, renderings, and
site plans of 12 current projects of varying typologies including
an 18-acre Phipps Ocean Park in the Town of Palm Beach, Florida.
Among the featured works are major landscapes surrounding luxury
residential complexes as well as lush private gardens from the
mountains in Mexico to volcanic craters in Panama, Caribbean
beachfronts, the Florida Keys, and densely populated cities like
Manhattan and Miami. Highlights include the restoration of the
famed interior garden by the revered landscape architect Dan Kiley
at the Ford Foundation Center for Social Justice in New York; a
landscape to evoke the work of legendary Brazilian designer Roberto
Burle Marx at the New York Botanical Garden, and two new gardens at
the the Naples Botanical Garden. Founded in 1985 by Raymond
Jungles, the firm's design priorities are generated by the scale
and functionality of a space. Simple, clean, and well-detailed
hardscape elements are the quintessential bones of a garden.
Planting volumes vary and bold colors and textures are used with
intent. The firm is guided by Raymond's personal and design
principles: integrity, relevance, and nature's honor. Their
informed designs tread lightly on the land, provide habitat, and
incorporate elements of surprise.
