The influence of landscape traditions, architectural styles and cultural references play an important role in defining a sense of place. Robin’s designs delve into the history of an area to evoke the spirit or meaning of that place and its community. Through the creative process, she focuses on emphasizing the site’s unique qualities in a dynamic expression.
Drawing from her many years of experience, Robin has built a reputation on her collaborative skills and a strong design aesthetic while working with clients, architects and contractors. At the forefront of Robin’s practice is her expertise in water-efficient landscape, sustainability and biophilic design. She has worked on many Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certified projects. With each new project, special attention is given to innovative design solutions including new construction methods and irrigation techniques, drainage considerations, storm water management and site-specific plant materials.
Ultimately, Robin sees her goal as enhancing her clients’ relationship with nature and stimulating an appreciation and enjoyment for its elements. In a larger sense, she would like to broaden the general public’s awareness for green development techniques in landscape architecture.
