Southampton Residence

Our design for a new build in Southampton takes an ecological approach to restoring the site with native plants (and no lawn), enveloping the house in a garden that will transform throughout the seasons. A series of intimate moments unfolds smoothly as you wander between them.

Koh Samui Garden Villa

Nestled on a beach overlooking the Gulf of Thailand, Koh Samui Garden Villa is collection of seven pavilions enveloped by a lush tropical garden. Designed in close collaboration with Atelier Nido, the landscape provides a sensory and immersive experience, both inside and out.

The buildings are organized to encourage movement between indoors and out, with each pavilion oriented to frame views, hold shade, and foster both privacy and interaction.

Local materials were used to create a sense of place: Samui granite hand-carved by island artisans, travertine sourced from a Thai quarry, Sukabumi stone at the pool to mirror the shifting colors of the sea, and repurposed teak shingles from an old barn on the roof of the bar and sala pavilions.

Manhattan Office Terrace

Landform collaborated on the planting design for a rooftop amenity terrace in the Meatpacking district.

The plant palette prioritizes native plants that are well-adapted to a rooftop environment to craft a dynamic and evolving palette as visualized in these renderings. This provides seasonal interest, movement, and sensory experiences throughout all seasons.

Buffalo River Rock Connector Trail

In collaboration with the Trust for Public Land, Landform developed a series of renderings to illustrate the potential of a new 2.73-mile trail that will turn an out-of-use rail corridor into a vibrant, green pathway linking four historically underserved neighborhoods to the benefits of nature.

Once complete, the River Rock Connector Trail will offer safe, accessible routes for walking and biking, improved access to the waterfront and the Empire State Trail, and much-needed green space in a part of the city long burdened by industrial disinvestment and a lack of infrastructure investment.
