LANDSCAPE

Hood Design Studio’s approach to landscape design blurs and complicates standard typologies. Sites can be understood in multiple and contradictory ways that often push against one another, and our approach embraces this fractured nature of spaces. Linguistic references to spaces shifts as their cultural associations develop and transform over time, often in conjunction with changing use. Within this palimpsest, Hood Design uncovers and responds to these linguistic hybridities present in all landscapes. This approach allows us to develop landscape forms that invoke cultural and formal histories, and that offer a multiplicity of unexpected possibilities.
