Where Art Meets Acumen.

Who we are. Synthesists. Provocateurs. Executors. We’re thinkers. We ask great questions!

What we care about. Moments. Memories. Connection. We aspire to create analog places in a digital world.

Where do we find inspiration. In meaningful relationships and the community it builds.

When is the right time. Now! Being mindful of this, we don’t take life too seriously and make fun a priority.

Why we exist. To grow. To evolve. To adapt. We aim to improve the lives of the people we touch and the places they will ultimately inhabit.

How we work. We listen first; act second. Our best ideas are born from skills of intuition, deep analysis, and respectful collaboration.

Community. Our work is a social practice, by design. We like to know and connect with our clients as people, discovering what they seek and why they seek it. We like to know the community we are working in, because even for a brief period, we relate with them.

Our Clients. You all have a goal in mind. We seek to help you achieve it. What was. What is. What will become.

Secret Sauce. Our signature style is that we don’t have one. We define our craft through multiple lenses. An openness to possibility and a willingness to take on new challenges drives us. We engage creatively as often, and in as many ways as we can.

The approach we take toward landscape design demonstrates a bias for simplicity and utility; desiring to build a future where digital technology helps elevate the most valuable parts of our analog world, not replace them.

We try to have our cake and eat it too. We seek out fresh approaches that might afford us experimentation with new processes, methods, and materials. At the same time, we know what we’re doing, who we’re doing it with, and who else needs to be involved. This minimises risk and makes any experimentation productive.

As technical generalists/general specialists, we are not wed to one type of work or process. We have broad experience in public and private domains at many scales. This hasn’t dulled our senses as much as sharpened our instincts for how to navigate on behalf of clients - where to apply effort, when to yield, how to be heard, who and what to listen to.

Each new landscape yields important data to inform and alter the next project, broadening our knowledge base. This is a time-honoured process with no substitute. Modes and fads are a distraction. Manifestos are static and boring. We are not landscape urbanists any more than we are sustainability prophets or protean resiliency experts; not that there’s anything wrong with that, we simply eschew such anthropocentric claims.

We are designers and makers. We build with strength and mindfulness. We’re possessed with a sincere curiosity to understand how things work, to investigate systems - natural and built - and their interactions in our projects, and to create ‘scapes that sustain themselves.

But we are irreverent to the acknowledgment of such things. We’d rather receive support for creating relevant, tangible experiences that grow out of the raw materials and processes we guide you through. A successful project for us rests on function, constructability, durability, and use! Among the most direct ways we can limit ecological impacts is with goods that last for generations or can be recycled so the materials in them remain in use.
