New Belgium Brewery, 21 Craven St, Asheville, NC, 28801

Join Paul Mills (RVI, formerly Russell Mills Studio) and Megan Foy (Equinox) for a guided walking tour of New Belgium's Asheville campus, presented on-site. Hear the design story behind transforming a degraded brownfield site — once divided by Penland Creek — into a brewery, tasting room, and gathering space beloved across Asheville. The design centers on crafting distinctive visitor experiences that draw a direct connection between place, community, and river, weaving together the flow of water, beer, and Asheville's community into a single, cohesive site.

Landscape architects will see firsthand how stormwater management, innovative landscape design, and native planting design come together to create a successful, functioning landscape amid complex site constraints.
