John\u2019s focus is design development, construction documentation, and design implementation\u2014in other words, translating designs \u201cfrom the boards to reality,\u201d often strengthening a plan through subtle adjustments. Extensive project experience in Japan has provided John with an understanding that we can influence, as well as, be influenced by cultures other than our own to great success and reward. His \u201cmaker spirit\u201d and a strong focus towards design realization through technical expertise and the craft of landscape architecture always strengthens the \u201cbig idea\u201d behind each endeavor. Many of his projects, including the award winning California Academy of Science in Golden Gate Park, often contain living roofs or on-structure gardens promoting sustainable design in urban contexts.<\/p>\n<\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1550043365129{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"font-size: 20px; text-align: left; margin-top: 0px;\"><strong>INSPIRED BY<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"vc-acf-field-picker-field vc-acf-field-picker-field-type-wysiwyg \"><p>Frank Lloyd Wright\u2019s detailing and integration of building with site; Jens Jensen\u2019s natural design philosophy and appreciation for an indigenous plant palette; Thomas Church for his promotion of the modernist movement and the garden as an extension of interior space; Peter Walker for his dedication to project design all the way through to the completion of the built product; and the Midwestern work ethic.<\/p>\n<\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1549973613519{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"font-size: 20px; text-align: left; margin-top: 0px;\"><strong>EDUCATION<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"vc-acf-field-picker-field vc-acf-field-picker-field-type-wysiwyg \"><p>Bachelor of Landscape Architecture, University of Illinois (1977)<\/p>\n<\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1549973668697{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"font-size: 20px; text-align: left; margin-top: 0px;\"><strong>AFFILIATIONS &amp; REGISTRATIONS<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"vc-acf-field-picker-field vc-acf-field-picker-field-type-wysiwyg \"><p>Fellow, American Society of Landscape Architects (2015-Present)<\/p>\n<p>Registered Landscape Architect: California (#2310)<\/p>\n<\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1549973711466{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"font-size: 20px; text-align: left; margin-top: 0px;\"><strong>SELECTED AWARDS<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"vc-acf-field-picker-field vc-acf-field-picker-field-type-wysiwyg \"><p>ASLA Northern California Chapter Honor Award: DNP Ichigaya Forest, Tokyo (2017)<\/p>\n<p>ASLA NCC Merit Award: Foundry Square (2015)<\/p>\n<p>ASLA Northern California Chapter Merit Award: Sun City, Yokohama (2014)<\/p>\n<p>ASLA Southern California Chapter Merit Award: Giant Interactive Headquarters (2014)<\/p>\n<p>ASLA Texas Chapter Honor Award: Tarrant County College (2013)<\/p>\n<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":23879,"template":"","tags":[222],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v21.3 (Yoast SEO v21.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>John S.
