Landscape Architecture - Planning

Background

JDA East, a landscape architecture and planning firm, was founded in 2005 by Gavin Davis, RLA. Our professional experience spans fifteen years of landscape architecture and planning on a variety of project types from the simple to complex. This experience allows JDA to provide our clients with a wide array of services tailored to their needs.

Philosophy

JDA East focuses on providing complete design services from Master/Site Planning to Construction Documentation and Marketing. We feel it is critical of a design office to not only have the creativity to envision the "big picture" but the ability to focus on the "nuts and bolts" to translate the vision into the built environment. For those not familiar with landscape architecture or planning we have published a detailed guide to the design process.

Technical Capabilities

JDA strives to stay current with the content and output demands of our clients. We currently utilize Windows XP based systems with Microsoft Office, Open Office, Adobe Acrobat, AutoCAD 2009, Autodesk Design Review and SketchUp. We also leverage web based technologies and data sources such as Municipal GIS, Google Earth, USDA, FEMA, and USGS to yield a depth of content and understanding of project opportunities and constraints for our clients.
