Surfacedesign, Inc. is a landscape architecture and design firm based in San Francisco, California. Integral to the ideology of the practice, Surfacedesign focuses on cultivating a sense of connection to the built and natural world, pushing people to engage with the landscape in new ways. Our approach emphasizes and celebrates the unique context and imaginative potential of each project. Our studio’s design process is rooted in asking novel questions and listening to a site and its users — a process that has led to engaging and inspiring landscapes that are rugged, contemporary and crafted.
Surfacedesign | Material Landscapes, a book on the firm’s body of work thus far, was published by Monacelli Press in 2019.
