Studio
Division 32 Landscape Architecture was founded in Chicago in 2018 to bring a focus on creating landscapes for everyday life. We believe that landscapes hold tremendous power over our lives, literally creating our schema for the world. Too many spaces have been built without care and without intent and our goal is to operate where we can to evolve our public and private landscapes, bridging ecological thinking and aesthetic principles.
Our unique professional and academic experiences span over twenty years and include working alongside Chicago's most significant landscape contractors, landscape architects, and horticulturists. Forming the backbone of our approach, these experiences have positioned Division 32 Landscape Architecture to define the next generation of landscape ideals and spaces throughout Chicago, the Great Lakes, and beyond.

Team Work Makes the Dream Work.
We believe in building strong relationships with clients and stakeholders - from homeowners to zoning boards - to ensure that changes in the landscape are considered personal and functional. Teamwork with allied disciplines including architects, interior designers, real-estate developers, civil and structural engineers, artists, fabricators, and urban designers makes our work lives dynamic and projects well-rounded. We are not interested in big egos but expect exceptional results conceived of with humility and with enjoyment.
