Michael Vergason Landscape Architects, Ltd. (MVLA) is founded on the belief that landscape architecture is a poetic, humanizing discipline responding to the fundamental human need for connection to our surrounding world. MVLA designs lasting places through creative and rigorous study of the site and its context. We carefully consider the past yet articulate a distinctly contemporary vision. Form and function merge as we emphasize a seamless integration of the built and natural environments, and take cues from natural and social processes. At MVLA, we seek ways to integrate human uses and creative interventions with the distinctive qualities of the land: its form, materiality, and vegetation. We love the temporal nature of our craft and strive to create memorable places that engage the senses and the imagination. This synthesis, handled with respect and vision, creates timeless places that both invigorate and delight.
