Devon Clark My inspiration with design has come from my opportunities to travel and live in places such as the Midwest and East Coast. Communities and health play big role in my interest and curiosity within landscape architecture and graphic design. I enjoy thinking spatially and conceptually to produce designs that are activating, provide healthy outlets and are engaging for pedestrians. The best way to achieve these goals is to collaborate with a variety of disciplines to meet user needs and produce a vibrant site specific project for everyone to experience. I believe some of the best works are created by those who have the ability to step aside and collaborate with an open mind.
