Approach

Over 25 years of award-winning landscape architecture & urban design, locally and across the globe.

 
 

From public art to city scale, strengthening people’s connection with the environment and their relationships with others drives everything.

We believe good design is simple, free from prescribed styles or precepts. Our work is built upon a passion and curiosity for purposeful solutions, enhancing our clients’ vision and their sites’ innate character.

Chris Bridle is the creative director and founder. His body of work includes the multi-award-winning design of Masdar City’s first neighborhood* – one of the world’s most sustainable urban developments in Abu Dhabi, UAE. The project consists of the city’s flagship district plaza, a northern gateway park, and a new visitors center site, designed in collaboration with Foster & Partners. He also led the public-realm design for Israel’s first underground light-rail system in Tel Aviv*, including new parks, plazas, and multimodal streetscapes.

Closer to home, Chris served as the design director for the re-imagining of two major Boston landmarks: the revitalization of the multi-award-winning Christian Science Plaza, and the Boston Legacy FC site** at the new White Stadium in Franklin Park. The Christian Science Plaza was originally designed c. 1970 by architects I.M. Pei & Associates and Araldo Cossutta, Associated Architects, and was designated a Boston landmark in 2011. Franklin Park, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted c. 1880, was designated a Boston Landmark in 1980.
