I was at Harvard yesterday to participate on the student project reviews at the GSD, and was flattered with an invitation by Craig Verzone to be interviewed for his podcast series, Terragrams, on landscape design. His series is a nice cross-section of the landscape profession – from academia to practitioners – and he’s interviewed some of the most recognizable names in the industry.
While the interview focused on SWA and how it operates, I really appreciate the opportunity it gave me to reflect on our practice. I am reminded of how proud I am of our creative and open studio. There is power generated from people working together in a design studio – which in a way is the heart and soul of SWA – design benefits from planning, planning from design. Conceptual designers pair with those who have strong technical and construction skills and the result is a higher quality design and end product, which is the built environment.
