YEARS OF EXPERIENCES
7 Giri R (RA2011201010062)
IN 2000
In 2000 the Miller property was designated a National Historic Landmark. The property was the home of Mrs. Miller until her death in February 2008. The Moore sculpture and other artwork from the estate were sold at auction in the summer of 2008, and the following year the Miller family donated the property to the Indianapolis Museum of Art. The Museum then opened the property to the public in 2011. The museum has established itself as an excellent steward of the site, setting a high standard for the curatorial treatment and management of Modernist landscape architecture.

THE HOUSE’S
interior is arranged around a cruciform grid of steel columns. Kiley worked with the architects to create a seamless connection between the interior and the landscape, setting thehome atop a twenty-five foot wide platform on which sits a ten-foot wide terrazzo terrace. The terrace acts as a physical bridge between the interior of Saarinen’s rectilinear structure and the garden, providing a setting for outdoor gatherings and dining. Extending from the patio to the edge of the platform are bedsofivygroundcover,periodicallybrokenthroughbypaverssetingravel.Twoweepingbeeches are planted at the edge of the patio to the west of the house, adding height and movement to the space.

THE LANDSCAPE’S GEOMETRIC DESIGN
The landscape’s geometric design reflects the home’s interior geometry.The formal garden spreads out to the north, south and east of the house, along a low bluff at the eastern end of the site.The space includes bosques of apple trees and a pool area (constructed in 1963 after completion of the house), and the home’s formal entry drive which is lined with horse chestnuts under-planted with yew hedges that further emphasize the structural qualities of Kiley’s design.Aseries of arborvitae hedges in twenty-foot lengths are staggered along the perimeter of this section of the landscape, providing a loose barrier between the estate and neighboring properties.The hedges provide a false sense of enclosure while in actuality still leaving the borders of the property open.

THE GARDEN
contains three distinct sections – to the east, the most formal section of the landscape consisting of the house and gardens; at the center, a transitional area created by an open meadow – a mown lawnedged by red maples twenty-seven feet on center (originally proposed as an allée of sycamores, three rows deep and twenty-feet on center); and to the west woodlands bisected by a creek.
