Located in north Scottsdale, Arizona, Cavalliere Park utilizes a limited palette of native materials and reductive design principles to create a beautiful modern architectural expression, nestled into the dramatic Sonoran Desert site. constructed almost entirely from native stone, concrete and unfinished steel, the resulting project has established a new standard for the design and implementation of a truly sustainable public space within an arid environment. in recognition of the accomplishment, Cavalliere Park was selected by ASLA's Sustainable SITES Initiative as a pilot project and is the first certified SITES project in Arizona, having received the highest certification level awarded to date.
