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.  

Recipient of the 2017 Cooper Hewitt National Design Award for Landscape Architecture, Surfacedesign is dedicated to designing outdoor spaces that connect people and their natural environment. In addition to creating residential gardens, Surfacedesign’s projects include public parks, urban plazas, waterfronts, wineries, and hotels and resorts.

Surfacedesign | Material Landscapes, a book on the firm’s body of work thus far, was published by Monacelli Press in 2019.
