## About

### Houzz Badges

- 10,000 Ideabook Saves

Lane Goodkind formed a landscape architectural office in October 2003 with the goal of assimilating compelling design with equally effective environmental stewardship. With over 15 years of experience he has been engaged in the design and construction of projects ranging from residential gardens to large‐scale institutional campuses in Oregon, California and Arizona. In his design efforts, significant opportunities have been realized to improve the comfort, aesthetics, resource efficiency, and value of properties while reducing pollution and saving money. This has required a broad range of knowledge of all construction affecting the natural environment. Horticultural expertise in the plants and habitats of California and the Pacific Northwest, a technical proficiency regarding development’s effects on watershed health, and artistic proficiency to illustrate the visual character of projects have compelled him to influence projects toward environmental responsibility and stewardship.
