The May lecture will feature David Godshall, co-founder of the California-based landscape studio Terremoto, with offices in Los Angeles and San Francisco. Terremoto designs projects ranging from residential gardens to public parks, combining playfulness, thoughtfulness, and a strong focus on user needs. The studio critically examines traditional and modern practices in landscape architecture, challenging established methods. A Southern California native, Godshall embraces the beauty of disorder in landscapes, creating bold, locally rooted designs where plants become poetry.
