CONNECTION TO NATURE Nature has the ability to enhance the functioning of the body’s immune system. Recent studies have found that living close to nature and spending time outside has significant health benefits. Exposure to greenspace leads to better health and can offer protections against a wide range of diseases including depression, diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, stress, and high blood pressure. We design opportunities to interact with nature on many scales, from embracing expansive vistas, to creating intimate garden spaces. Spaces for outdoor living are an extension of the home. Each environment is unique and we work to enhance vital connections to the natural world in each and every project.
