International School of Boston, Cambridge, MAThe International School of Boston (www.isbos.org) is the first site in the United States to feature synthetic turf with an all-natural infill material, and school officials believe their new field will be a model for schools, sports leagues, and public recreation departments across the country. The infill, which goes underneath and inside the blades of synthetic grass, is derived from coconut shells and cork and because it contains no rubber, surface temperatures approximate those of grass and produce far fewer injuries.
“The International School of Boston, in designing its new play area, made it clear they did not want to settle for a typical surface,” said Jonathan Austin, Principal of Austin Architects, which developed the school’s master plan and designed the new play area in collaboration with Ray Dunetz Landscape Architecture. Austin’s team identified the new product and then conducted a rigorous review with the school’s Green Committee to ensure the product was the right fit for the school’s needs.
In addition to Austin Architects and Ray Dunetz Landscape Architecture, which are both members of the United States Green Building Council, the project team includes landscape construction firm Emanouil Brothers, Inc. and civil engineers Samiotes Consultants, Inc.
