GLS Landscape Architecture
We are focused on the design of contemporary landscapes, which are understood as being fundamentally intertwined with architecture, urban infrastructure and natural systems.

Our projects are places of refuge with simplicity and spatial clarity, typically with complex site planning issues and often with an architectural component. GLS works closely with clients to integrate interior and exterior spaces and materials, reinforce spatial ideas through horticultural design, and solve problems associated with difficult sites.

GLS places a priority on the following ideas and values:
  • _a seamless relationship between architecture and landscape
  • _the integration of landscape and infrastructure
  • _architectural quality detailing in the landscape
  • _horticulture performing a spatial and ecological role beyond ornamentation
  • _an emerging second nature where nature and structure are intertwined
  • _history and precedent in landscape, architecture and urban design
