BASE, a small landscape architecture firm with offices in San Francisco and Portland, Oregon, is unique in several ways: our commitment to mentorship; the proportion of our clients who are community-based, civic, or nonprofit organizations; and the values-driven connection to our projects.

Learning Objectives:

• Find out how the studio’s nonprofit arm contributes to our research and design efforts to promote healthy pollinator habitats in order to achieve greater positive impact on natural and built environments.
• Explore how BASE has worked to expand our clients’ perception of what landscape architecture is and the capabilities of our studio and LA professionals.
• Learn how to manage a small design business that has strong commitments to sustainability and mentorship.
• Learn how we have designed and built mobile communications and education vehicles that support the goals of parks and recreation areas.
