MSA delivers smart, well-built landscape architecture solutions

The art of deliberate spaces.

To us, landscape architecture is not about filling a void, but crafting an experience. The spaces between, among and around our built environment hold great possibility, and our landscape architects are masterful at unlocking that potential to design places of invitation and intrigue.

Landscape architecture is everywhere, from the subtle to the stunning. It takes form in site design projects for municipal buildings, campuses, corporate headquarters, health care facilities, transportation corridors, and for public and private development. It is incorporated into neighborhood and downtown planning efforts, stormwater management systems, for community parks, open spaces, waterfronts, streetscapes and public plazas. It can also enhance those critical amenities such as lift stations and wellhouses, bringing what was once left hiding in the shadows to the forefront, as accents within broader park-like settings or as creative complements to the existing environmental aesthetic. MSA’s landscape architects work hand-in-hand with our multidisciplinary engineers, architects and planners to provide holistic project solutions to make spaces of all shapes and sizes more inviting.

We do this by consulting with project leaders and inviting input from the public, turning our attention toward the creative design of the spaces that either interact with the infrastructure around them or are interactive experiences themselves. Our landscape architecture professionals fuse art and science in every project, with results to complement and enhance everything from libraries and universities to parks, trail systems and marinas—all with a deliberate, detailed eye toward sustainable and resilient design.
