EP 264 | The 3 P’s with Lanson Jones

March 15, 2022

Listen Now

To create authentic spaces that resonate deeply, we must consider the personality of the client, the personality of the site and the personality of the architecture, says landscape architect Lanson B. Jones. We discuss the 3 Ps and how to lean into them for the most impact.

In this episode we learn:

  • clients have built in preferences which you can’t fight
  • never fight with the architecture
  • the site must be respected to achieve harmony
  • start small and blow up the design
  • bring uniqueness into every design
  • mirror and pattern the internal and external details of the architecture
  • always tour museums that are homes or gardens
