Designers, builders, managers and owners of land usually focus on exerting control over a site, as if what happens there could somehow be isolated from the mechanics of nature. With enough resources and money, a landscape can be rendered and preserved in a superficially static condition.
But most often, a site is left to its own devices and the picture that was promised begins to change into a hybrid of what is desired and what is inevitable. Many many built spaces suffer from the sense of blight that we innately perceive when a cultivated space goes feral.
Regardless of project size, scope, budget, and type of task, when devising plans of action, we always begin with the same question: what is possible? Not only does this mindset encourage inventiveness, it reminds us to consider the capabilities of the land given the unique set of conditions each project presents. We design and plan with an atypical non-linearity, using our experience with process to anticipate and even maximize the potential outcomes.
