Job Description

Description:

Arentz Landscape Architects, a small boutique landscape architecture firm, is seeking a talented and motivated Mid-level Designer/Landscape Architect. Our practice is 90% high-end residential with the occasional institutional project including niche hotels, private schools, and museums. We practice across a broad spectrum of scales from large rural estates to small urban gardens developing big picture relationships and intensely focusing on the execution of the finer details. ALA has developed a consistent body of award-winning work based on the philosophy that the creation of place is critical to the outcome of a project and achieved through an understanding of scale, proportion, and context to develop projects that fit their environment. Underlying all of our work is the acknowledgement that each project is unique, and an appropriate response is one that carefully integrates client values with layers of culture, history, and materials. Our projects are primarily in the Mid-Atlantic region with a D.C., Maryland, and Virginia focus. However, we frequently have projects outside of the region and occasionally abroad.

Our offices are located in Old Town Warrenton, Virginia among the foothills of the Blue Ridge and at Dupont Circle, Washington, DC.

 

Experience: 

Qualified candidates must have at least three years of experience in a professional setting and an undergraduate or graduate degree in Landscape Architecture. 

 

Responsibilities :

▪ Contribute to and collaborate on the development of conceptual design presentations.

▪ Develop, organize, and detailed design and construction packages.

Skills/Qualifications :
