Message from the Founder and Director

Travis Harrison, RLA, ASLA

I have always had a natural inclination to design and draw since I was very young. Coupled with the profession of landscape architecture I have forged a meaningful career pursuing aesthetic and ecological harmony in my projects. Having designed on most of the world's continents with some of the most progressive international architects and landscape architects I have seen many methods of design and construction. This has afforded me a wide design vision to bring highly creative landscape related problem solving to any project. Each project has goals to engage and analyze opportunities to be a champion for the environment; to follow a design process that leads to a balance of project elements; and to ensure the project has ecological validity and integrity. No project is too small or large for our involvement. We look forward to providing the highest level of attention and service to you.
