Mission We are an ideas-first firm. Our designers are driven to create and seek out ideas at each step. We thrive on collaboration; we know great ideas come from a multitude of sources. Experience has taught us that great design is rooted in equal parts innovation, sustainability and stewardship. Our work is fiscally and environmentally responsible from inception.
Description SWA excels at transforming underutilized spaces into exceptional places. As world leaders in landscape architecture, planning and urban design, our purpose and passion spans over 50 years. Whether celebrating the unique value of Houston’s bayous, Atlanta’s freeways, the Los Angeles River or the streetscapes of Shanghai, SWA’s rigorous process of engaging with a site on its own terms results in memorable places that have clarity of function, identity and meaning.

We are interested in how cities work. We see landscape as part of the infrastructure of great cities, as critical as a freeway or electrical grid. When viewed through this lens, systems that transform our communities emerge; they change how people view themselves and the world around them. We research, practice and implement these systems and, in the process, make healthier places.
