Who We Are
Groundwork Studio was created to focus on landscape architecture, urban design and planning with the support of a full-service architecture firm having over 40 years experience in the community. We are guided by the idea that when we improve our surroundings, we transform ourselves. Our objective is to explore the full potential of landscape architecture and planning though a contextual approach to urban design, economic and ecological resilience, creative placemaking, community engagement, functionality and context-sensitive design. Groundwork Studio sees each project as a unique collaborative opportunity where listening to the client, place and design team generates creative and regenerative design solutions.
“Groundwork Studio’s drive and commitment to project goals is a constant source of admiration for the individuals who collaborate with them. They are a capable, creative and dedicated thought partner with a clear vision of how we can grow as a community by turning dreams into actions.”
Sahra Saedi, Community Engagement Director, ACE Leadership High School
