Gunn Landscape Architecture is a landscape architecture practice based in New York City and the Hamptons, with an extensive portfolio in high end residential projects and select commercial and public work throughout the United States. Founded by Alec Gunn in 2000, the firm's body of work ranges in scale and program from classic Upper East Side balconies and contemporary downtown rooftops, to multi-acre estates in Connecticut and the Hamptons.
Through creative collaborative efforts with clients, architects, interior designers and consultants, we strive to create contemporary yet enduring landscapes that address the inherent qualities and requirements of a particular site. Though our aesthetic leans toward the modern, our design solutions draw from a wide range of historical influences - whether it be the classic lines of historical French and Italian gardens, the horticultural sensibility of English gardens or elegant restraint of Japanese gardens - to create spaces that invite rather than dictate. As a firm, we follow an ethic of sustainability, sourcing local building materials and emphasizing native and diverse planting material whenever possible.

  - Description: Gunn Landscape Architecture designed this contemporary, cozy and low maintenance common space. Features include versatile areas for dining, lounging, relaxing and reading, which can be viewed from the apartments above that share the space. Layers of foliage and perennial plantings are paired with blooming dogwood trees to give year-round interest. Vert Gardens also installed paving, wood work, lighting and irrigation to transform this space from a dinghy courtyard into a beautiful common space.
