Dwell Magazine- September Issue

Mingo Design can now proudly say..

"You can see us in Dwell Magazine."

The Gamble House one of Mingo Designs Harlem gems is featured in the architecture section in the September Issue of Dwell Magazine. Telling the tale of how we transformed what essentially was a dumping ground of rubble and broken glass into an Oasis on 136th Street.

"Landscape Architects imagine exterior spaces that talk to, describe, and compliment what they surround."

"A serpentine path of stones edged with cedar stakes creates the illusion of depth in a constricted Manhattan backyard. The narrow space now has theaters of activity to help the residents forget the city"

-Michael Cannell (the writer of the article)
