Description
Echoing throughout our studio is the word edit. This term has become one of the firm’s guiding principles in that we refine spaces envisioned by our client’s collective imagination by anchoring them in the practice of architectural integrity and historical significance and operating sensibly beneath the environmental canopy. With an energetic team oriented toward creative collaboration with clients, we blend timeless design in the framework of projects large and small, public and private. Our rich studio culture encourages diversity in design ranging from classic French and Italian, to modern, contemporary styles. Dedicated to exploring excellence in technical standards, our team is guided by the traditions of landscape architecture and strives to raise the bar in watershaping. As stewards of environmental design, we value the opportunity to cultivate lasting impressions that engage our clients from start to finish. Partner and Principal of Design, Ben provides guidance and leadership throughout the design and sales process, facilitating client relations and expectations through all phases of the project. Well-versed in landscape and pool construction history, trends and literature from both a design and build perspective, Ben brings a well-rounded approach to business development. A graduate of Western State College in Gunnison, Colorado with a degree in Business Recreation, Ben extends his studies through his involvement with the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA). In addition, he has had training with the Genesis 3 Pool Society as well as successfully completing the Mike Lin, ASLA, Graphics Workshop program. He currently chairs the ASLA Design/Build Professional Practice Network with like-minded associates throughout the country and conducts and facilitates panel discussions and debates at the annual conference.
