Devoted to the profession and all its elements – art, environment, architecture, engineering, and sociology – DWY Landscape Architects is dedicated to creating distinctive, sustainable spaces that bring people closer to nature in refined, elegant, and significant ways through clean, modern designs harmonious with the region’s natural environment.
As landscape architects, we practice the analysis, planning, design, management, and stewardship of natural and built environments. Designing spaces that blend residences, neighborhoods, towns, and cities with the surrounding natural environment, from forests and fields to rivers and coasts, without doing harm requires a commitment to sustainable practices, low-impact development, and, for our Southwest Florida area especially, coastal resiliency. With these principals at the forefront, DWY works to create a thoughtful integration of the land and built environment to create a sense of place and seamless relationship of the two, blurring the boundaries between the indoors and outdoors and deepening humanity’s relationship with nature.
With each unique project, our team follows a creative and collaborative process that is in touch with the ‘spirit’ of the site's spatial influences, architecture, and natural environment. The focus is always on the development of space, clarity of design, continuity with architecture, and use of regional and sustainable materials to result in a mindful balance that not only enhances the area’s unique natural systems but also repairs them in the process.
